Answer:

Correct answer is option C (Brahe and Kepler.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Copernican model

Copernican model is also known as heliocentric model. According to Copernican model planets rotate around the Sun in an orbit, and earth is orbited by the Moon. Also sun is stationary and it lies at the center of the universe and stars also do not move.

Brahe supported the Copernican model but he rejected the idea that earth moves.

Kepler's also supported Copernican model and In his book "the Mysterium Cosmographicum" Kepler appreciated Copernican model. like Kepler also believed in heliocentric model not in geocentric one.
