 * Biography-** Born January 4, 1643 and died March 31, 1727. Lived in England for his whole life. Sir Issac Newton was a English physicist, mathematician, astronomer, natural philosopher, alchemist, and theologian. Considered one of the most influential people in human history. He laid foundations for classical mechanics. Some of the major contributes he made was the founding gravity and the three laws of motion. He also invented the first reflecting telescope. He was very religious he was an unorthodox Christian. Was warden of the royal mint. More or less he was the cats pajamas. He fooled around in many different fields and was successful in all fields he was in. He would be considered a Renaissance Man.


 * Summary**-Isaac Newton was the greatest English mathematician of his generation. He laid the foundation for differential and integral calculus. His work on optics and gravitation make him one of the greatest scientists the world has known. He was an important man to mankind because he helped in multiple fields of science and math to change the world perspective on those fields. He was an Orthodox Christian man, which was weird to work in the fields of science and math while being a Christian. Though threw this his findings made him more religious and said that religion made sense now because of his findings. He was the father of Physics and founded many laws of gravity. One of his famous quotes would be this, “I was like a boy playing on the sea-shore, and diverting myself now and then finding a smoother pebble or a prettier shell than ordinary, whilst the great ocean of truth lay all undiscovered before me.” – Isaac Newton. He was a great man and had many impacts on today’s science and mathematics and many things derive from Isaac Newton’s findings.
