Kaelan discusses the history of Astronomy on a new episode of A Briefer History of the Past. Shorter, less informative, and with half the calories of a normal Brief History episode. Kaelan explores Astronomy's creation with ancient peoples, Copernicus's model of the universe, and Galileo's work with telescopes that got him under house arrest. Patrons get access to full Brief History of the Past videos a week before everyone else as well as other bonus content.
