Tycho Brahe, a 16th-century Danish astronomer, was known for his contributions to the field of astronomy and his eccentricities. Legend has it that he lost part of his nose in a duel with a fellow nobleman over a mathematical formula. Following this incident, Brahe wore a prosthetic nose made of silver and gold. This unconventional accessory became a defining feature of his persona and added to his reputation for eccentricity. Despite his injury, Brahe continued his astronomical observations and made significant discoveries, leaving behind a lasting legacy in the history of science.
