Kepler's Platonic Inner Planets

thingiverse

Johannes Kepler had a highly regarded model of planetary orbits that centered around the Platonic solids, as well as their corresponding inscribed and circumscribed spheres. The astronomer even sketched out a detailed illustration of this intricate system, depicting both the complete layout and just the internal planetary arrangements. What's particularly notable is that Kepler's drawings bear striking similarities to our modern reconstructions of those same inner planets' configurations.
