Biography
Isaac Newton, one of the greatest scientists in history, was born on January 4, 1643, in Woolsthorpe, Lincolnshire, England. His birth coincided with the death of his father, also named Isaac Newton, who passed away just a few months before young Isaac was born. Newton's early life was marked by hardships, and he was raised by his maternal grandmother after his mother remarried and moved away.
Isaac Newton attended the King's School in Grantham, where he showed an early interest in mechanics and technology. Despite facing financial challenges, his aptitude for learning earned him the opportunity to attend Trinity College, Cambridge, in 1661. At Cambridge, Newton delved into various subjects, including mathematics, physics, and astronomy.
In 1665, the bubonic plague forced the university to close, and Newton returned to Woolsthorpe. This period, known as his 'annus mirabilis' or 'miracle year,' became a turning point in his life. During this time, Newton made groundbreaking...Read MORE...

1666 - Isaac Newton discovers gravity
'...According to the well-known story, it was on seeing an apple fall in his orchard at some time during 1665 or 1666 that Newton conceived that the same force governed the motion of the Moon and the apple. He calculated the force needed to hold the Moon in its orbit, as compared with the force pulling an object to the ground. He also calculated the centripetal force needed to hold a stone in a sling, and the relation between the length of a pendulum and the time of its swing...'
