jan 1, 1673 - Isaac Newton

Description:

Isaac Newton,English mathematician, physicist, astronomer, theologian, and author;
Newton studied gases, and the possibility of atoms existing, and like Boyle, his work was impeded by the church.
He proposed a mechanical universe where small solid masses were in motion. In short, he believed that there were little tiny pieces of mass that were 'swimming' everywhere.
He began to understand that atoms or particles move and are not stationary.
Newton described the attractive and repulsive forces of objects having some impact on pressure.
