aug 3, 442 BC - Democritus created the Atomic Theory: Everything is composed of “atoms”, which are physically, but not geometrically, indivisible;
Between atoms, there lies empty space;
Atoms are indestructible;
Atoms have always been, and always will be, in motion;
There are an infinite number of atoms, and kinds of atoms, which differ in shape, and size.
