This is not only Newton's famous saying, but also the motto of many people, but you should know that this sentence was not chicken soup at first, but a poisonous word at that time.

Sir isaac newton (1643 65438+1October 4th-1727 March 3rd1), chairman of the Royal Society, a famous British physicist, is an encyclopedic "all-rounder" and author of Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy and Optics.

1, science and theology

Newton lived to be 80 years old, but he spent 40 years in scientific research and 40 years in theological research. He used many "scientific phenomena" to prove the existence of God. Even when studying how old the earth is, he actually used the Bible to calculate 6000 years. Such a sharp contrast makes it difficult to associate these things with this giant of science.

2. The only regret is that

Newton made outstanding contributions to science all his life. He is the founder of modern science. He started a new era of marching into science, but he lost the chance to get married because he was ashamed to confess to the girl. Then he never married, had no children and had no descendants.
