One thing though: Tycho's story about losing his nose in a duel is rather suspect. There was another reason why someone lost a nose at the time which was far more common called "Syphilis". Tycho was a party animal and prone to.. eh.. enjoying meeting people of the opposite sex including women of let's say lesser virtue but that story is neither very romantic nor makes it picking up other women during parties particularly easy. In short, it was probably syphilis. As for being poisoned, mercury was used in all kind of medication at the time so even if that would have been the source or part of the reason for his death that does not mean he was poisoned, the dude was an aging party animal so he probably had some aches he took medication for, Oh, and mercury was used to "cure" a particular disease (which it did actually lessen the symptoms of) called "syphilis". So it is very unlikely he was poisoned. But Tycho is certainly one of the weirdest and most interesting scientist who ever lived even if he sometimes had a tendency to brag. I visited both his observatory/party palace on Hven and what is left of Brahehus where his family lived.

@nordicpatriot It can happen very fast if you get a trauma to the nose, so technically both things can be true even if that is rather unlikely. The speed you can loose your nose vary a lot and I don't think it is unlikely he was sexually active from somewhere between 14 and 16 years old, the dude was a party animal and rich, it isn't unusual to lose your virginity at that age today either. And I noticed you use the word "often", far from all people with syphilis becomes insane. Tycho was eccentric but he certainly wasn't insane but that doesn't prove anything. He died in his mid 50s so it isn't like he became ancient either. The only evidence of his duel is from himself and we do know of plenty of other people using false noses at the time after syphilis. Yeah, it is not 100% certain, I admit that but it is a pretty likely possibility. It doesn't make the guy less cool though, the man held legendary parties, was one of the best scientists of his time and if someone makes a working time machine, going to one of his party would be high on my bucket list.

I remember the section of the course on Kepler's laws because we were assigned a project to write a computer program in FORTRAN to calculate the retrograde motion of Mars. I already knew about Kepler's laws of planetary motion from my high school Physics course in 1978 at Thomas Dale High in Chester, Virginia, but Tycho Brahe was not mentioned in that high school course.

As I'm Swedish I learned about Tycho Brahe in school. Not all the interesting details about his personal life though. Perhaps the teacher thought we were to young to handle those facts. There's also days named after him. According to legend he was given the task of pointing out the most unlucky days of the year. T. Brahe concluded that there's 32 such days in Denmark but 33 in Sweden. You shouldn't move houses, change your workplace or get married on those days. Preferable not being born either. The worst of these Tycho Brahe days is January 11.

If you are a Dane or can understand Danish, I can recommend the Danish podcast "Vanvittig Verdenshistorie" (Insane World History). Their episode about Tycho is spectacular. It is by far the best Danish podcast. Every story those boys touch, turn into gold. Their best works are pretty much anything they've done, but some stories worth highligthing, is about Walt Disney, Houdini, Coco Chanel, Robert Peary, Dominique-Jean Larrey and the big Poison Murder case in France under The Sun Kings rule, the biggest murder spree by nobles and court case in history besides the Nuremberg trials.

Tycho was pronounced Tücko - as if it were in German (at least that's closer than Teeko. Danish is, according to numerous linguistic sources, apparently one of the hardest languages to learn and pronounce properly). And sorry, the whole murder thing belongs to the tin-foil hat brigade. It's been proven that as you initially stated,he did die of complications (probably sepsis or some other massive infection) a burst bladder because he didn't want to leave the table. It was one of the reasons why the (small p) puritan Kepler, who genuinely admired his intellect because Brahe was a genius, would often row with him. Though Kepler often wrote how they would soon be reconciled and that he loved him (purely platonic before someone starts shipping them 🤦🏻‍♀️). If you want the sciency stuff about the debunking of the murder "theory" (it's really out of conspiracy theory land), go to Cool Hard Logic and his awesome series World of Batshit. That's a series where he debunks all sorts of crazy, mainly from the flat earth brigade, with science and a great deal of humour.

Kepler probably did not murder Tycho. But he almost certainly did steal Tycho collection of observation data he had collected over the years. Tycho's precious data was bequeathed to his heirs. Kepler was NOT Tycho's protege. He was only an assistant and collaborator. He was with Tycho for barely a year before Brahe died. Everybody accepts that those data were critical and essential to Kepler's subsequent work. How did he come into possession of those data? He took it when his employer died and he took up a new position as imperial mathematician/astrologer.
