Summary

"Tabvlae Rudolphinae" (Rudolphine Tables) is a set of astronomical tables that were published in the 17th century. The tables were commissioned by the Holy Roman Emperor Rudolph II and were compiled by the German astronomer and mathematician Johannes Kepler. The tables were based on Kepler's laws of planetary motion and were intended to be used as a reference guide for astronomers and other scientists. They were widely used and were considered an important advancement in the field of astronomy. The complete title of the tables, as provided in your question, is "Tabvlae Rudolphinae, quibus astronomicae scientiae verae ipsiusque mathematicae pseudosphaericae fundamenta continetur" (Rudolphine Tables, in which the true foundations of the astronomical sciences and of the pseudospherical mathematics are contained).
