: WHY WAS HE FAMOUS
Danielle, any library could've told you the following, but if you insist, and you do insist...
Newton...
Developed the three fundamental laws of motion.
Developed the theory that white light is a mixture of seven primary colors: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet.
Developed a new (rather complex) mathematical procedure called Calculus.
Developed the reflecting telescope (using a mirror to collect the light).
Developed the theory of Gravity to explain the motion of the planets and comets - called the Principia.
Easy, eh? Amazing what library membership can do ;)
