Danish astronomer Tycho/Tyge Brahe (1546-1601) is immensely important for two reasons:

1) Observing and measuring the (rough) distance to a supernova, establishing novae as outside the solar system. This proved that the "stellar firmament" was not a God-given stable sphere, but a dynamic system. Brahe made these observations around 1572.

2) Making the most accurate measurements of planetary positions available at that time, and for a long time thereafter. Brahe's data was used by Kepler to develop his laws of planetary motion, determining that the Earth had an elliptical orbit around the Sun.

Tycho Brahe was known for his precise observations and measurements, of planets' positions among other things. These observations were done with the naked eye; astronomers after him did measurements with telescopes.

How did Brahe's work help Kepler develop his laws of planetary motion?

Kepler was Brahe's assistant. He continued to analyze Brahe's data after Brahe's died. Kepler determine that the planets revolve around the sun in elliptical, or ovalshaped, orbits. He also developed three laws that describe planetary motion. These laws are still used today. Hope I explained this clearly(:
