Hantaro Nagaoka (jan 1, 1865 – jan 1, 1950)

Description:

Hantaro Nagaoka disliked Thomson's model of the atom so he created his own. His model resembled the planet Saturn because it had a positively charge center with the negatively charged electrons around it in rings. This model is referred to as the Saturnian model.
