contributed to theoretical understanding of high-energy collisions and the fundamental interactions of elementary particles |
| 366 |  |
Tycho Brahe 1546-1601 Le Danemark Astronomie |
observed a supernova now known as ``Tycho's supernova''; made the most precise observations of stellar and planetary positions then known |
| 367 |  |
Giovanni Cassini 1625-1712 L'Italie Astronomie |
measured rotational periods of Jupiter and Mars; discovered four satellites of Saturn and the gap in Saturn's rings now known as ``Cassini's division'' |
| 368 |  |
Charles Messier 1730-1817 France Astronomie |

Johann Bode 1747-1826 Allemagne Astronomie |
popularized a relationship giving planetary distances from the Sun, which became known as ``Bode's law''; predicted an undiscovered planet between Mars and Jupiter, where the asteroids were later found |
