Surname[edit]

His Surname is in German and not latinized Reimers. Christian or first name Nicolaus. Ursus was used by him as author of three publications as a kind of Sobriquet. The article should go under Nicolaus Reimers indicating that he is also known under Nicolaus Reimarus Ursus. Thats the way de:Wikipedia and Allgemeine Deutsche Biographie do it. --Kresspahl 17:45, 1 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Diagram of Ursus's alternative geoheliocentric model required[edit]

One of the two diagrams of the Tychonic model currently in this article should be replaced by a diagram of Ursus's alternative geoheliocentric model with non-intersecting Martian and Solar orbits (and a revolving Earth), unlike Tycho's model. I recommend the diagram from Ursus's 1588 'Fundamentum Astronomicum' as reproduced in Christine Schofield's 'The Tychonic and semi-Tychonic world systems' on page 34 of the Wilson & Taton 'Planetary astronomy from the Renaissance to the rise of astrophysics' 1989 CUP. And together with Schofield's textual commentary.

But I don't know how to put pictures in Wikipedia articles. Can anybody else possibly kindly assist or do this ? --Logicus (talk) 15:46, 29 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I have today replaced the second rather otiose picture of the Tychonic system with a picture of Nicolas Reimers' geoheliocentric planetary model as reproduced in the above mentioned book, and placed today in Wikimedia Commons. This is to enable immediate direct comparison of the two basically similar but also significantly different models, in order to show the points made in the text. Whereas the Martian orbit intersects the Solar orbit in Tycho's model, it does not in the illustration of Ursus's, although the orbit of Venus does, as in Tycho's model--Logicus (talk) 18:18, 21 February 2008 (UTC).[reply]
