Abstract

One of the most ancient sciences developed by mankind is astronomy and it represents a clear example of how mathematics turned it on as a science leaving behind the concepts of astrology. We present a brief summary of the development of astronomy through history thanks to mathematics, and how they can get science to the achievement of new theories predicted empirically. An example of this is Titius-Bode law. We find that knowledge achieves the character of science thanks to mathematics, nevertheless, they require theoretical basis that supports them.
