if he did can you explain it in a simple way?
-
Yes, he did. For example, he developed a theory that "new stars" (now know as supernovas) where not atmospheric phenomenon, but were high above the atmosphere and way past the moon. He also developed a theory that comets were above the atmosphere. And he had a theory that the planets (except the Earth) revolved around the sun.
Then there is his theory of the moon's orbit, which fit the observations five time better than previous theories.
