Johannes Kepler's three laws of planetary motion, published in the early 17th century, provided the framework for Sir Isaac Newton's Law of Universal Gravitation. Kepler's laws described how the planets move around the sun in ellipses, rather than circles, and how they speed up or slow down in different parts of their orbits. Newton built on this knowledge to develop the concept of gravity as a force that acts between any two objects in the universe.
