mar 15, 1704 - Isaac Newton
Description:
He grew up on a farm and had an interrupted education. This caused many to believe that he was not smart and rather challenged. He became one of the most influential scientists with his discoveries contributing to the atomic theory and for the three laws of motion. He theorized that atoms and particles move and are not stationary. This is important for the electron because this explains that the electrons are actually not contained in these shells but are rather moving around in that area.
