The correct answer is A.

Kepler did his work as evidence of the Copernican theory, he tried to understand the laws of planetary motion for most of his life.

Kepler was a follower of the Copernican model, he tried to show that the distances of the planets from the Sun were given by spheres in the interior of perfect polyhedra, nested successively inside each other.
