Isaac Newton

Danny Park

Isaac Newton was born in England on January 4th, 1643. His father also known as Isaac

Newton died three months before he was born. So his mother remarried when Isaac Newton

was 3 years old. Isaac was attending to school but one point her mother wanted to take him

out of the school and work on farming. But he had no dreams to become a farmer. In 1661

Isaac was attending to Cambridge College. He wanted to be a professor of mathematics and a

group of scientists in England. So in Cambridge College, he was elected as a member. On

1665 through 1667 he had to leave Cambridge College because of Great Plague. He spent

two years in Woolsthorpe house developing and improving on calculus, gravity, and the laws

of motion. In 1687 he published his most important work called ‘Philosophiae Naturalis

Principia Mathematica’. In this work, he explained the three laws of motion. He also

explained the principals of modern physics. In 1696 He became the London’s Royal Mint. He

seriously tried to get rid of corruption and in 1703 he was elected president of the royal

society. Newton died on March 31th, 1727 in London. Today he is an important role in

science and considered as one of the most influential scientists of all time.

He studied science specifically as a means of learning more about God, but he never

forgot that the best way to learn about God was by through bible study. Newton found out

many scientific discoveries. Some of the most important and famous ones are telescope. In

1668 he invented the telescope. The way of he used was he used mirrors to reflect light and

formed an image. Every major telescope used in today is the reflecting telescope. Also, his

Principia was important too. First, he laid down three laws of motions. Second, he built on

the work of Pascal and added many details to the motion. Third, he used detailed

experiments.

Newton worked hard and the reason why he studied science was about God. He was a
great scientist and he worked hard for science. He is true scientists in the world.
