Kepler noticed Galileo’s work and began to dig deeper into it. He noticed that they had similar ideas about the universe, so he wrote a letter to Galileo expressing his acknowledgment towards Galileo’s beliefs (Helden). Galileo received a lot of criticism for his ideas, but when Kepler concurred with Galileo’s ideas Galileo acquired less hatred. Kepler was the first astronomer to coincide publicly with Galileo (Voelker 71). These letters helped make the heliocentric theory remembered because the documents that Kepler and Galileo sent to each other can still be found today. These letters also talked about the proof that they both discovered. Both Kepler and Galileo constructed different books that contained meaningful evidence. Galileo’s books helped various people convert to believing in the Copernican theory (Frey 393). “Kepler had introduced physical considerations into the heavens and had published his Rudolphine Tables based on his own theory”(Helden). There were many setbacks that Galileo and Kepler faced with their writings. One setback was having some of their books banned for assorted reasons (Leveille). This meant that many informational pieces of writing were unable to be seen by the public, so the people became more interested in the writing. Another setback, was because of the church. The church censored most of the work produced because it did not agree with the scriptures (Hightower 81). This was another reason the people were more curious about the books. One more hindrance that Galileo faced, was that many books were published that tried to disprove what Kepler and Galileo were trying to prove (Hightower 94). With all of these troubles these scientists managed to make informative books that helped the Copernican theory stay
