Keplars

Keplars is a plural form that may be used to refer to multiple individuals bearing the surname Kepler. The surname Kepler has German origins and is associated with several historical figures; the most notable is Johannes Kepler (1571–1630), a key figure in the Scientific Revolution and the discoverer of the three laws of planetary motion. Beyond Johannes Kepler, the surname has appeared in lists of scientists, engineers, and academics. In common usage, there is no widely recognized concept, organization, or definition simply named "Keplars" in science or culture.

The term is often encountered in text as a misspelling or pluralization of "Kepler" when multiple people named Kepler are discussed, or as a fictional or stylistic name in media. The well-known astronomical mission Kepler (NASA) is named after Johannes Kepler, but is officially referred to as Kepler, not Keplars. Because "Keplars" does not denote a single established subject, the term is typically clarified by context or rephrased as "the Keplers" or "the Kepler family" when appropriate.
