My name is Aristotle and I am a Greek philosopher. I was a student of Plato and a teacher of Alexander the Great. I have proposed my live to discovering ideas and theories of reality and what lie beyond them. To me, Truth is more important than friendship. I have a very encyclopaedic mind and I would enquire about anything that I feel must be revealed to me.
I have laid the foundations of western philosophy along with a few other philosophers including Plato, my teacher. I have focussed my knowledge and studies on human life through experiences and observations. Eventually I turned my studies to most areas including space and cosmology.
I was born to an aristocratic family in 384 BC. My father was a physician to the king of Macedon. I went to Plato's academy as student. After Plato's death, I renewed my connection to the Macedonian court and then went on to become a teacher to King Macedon's son, Alexander the Great.
There is a Fresco of me and Plato in the school of Athens painted by Raphael that symbolises Plato and myself's specialities and main areas of study. I'm on the left and Plato is on the right.
In this diary, I will be considering my astronomic theories of the universe. This includes the model of the universe. I will also be talking about some of my other discoveries including spherical orbits, retrograde orbits, crystalline spheres and the spherical shape of the earth. I will contrast what is correct and incorrect about what I have theories and what limitations I have come across in my studies.
