Isaac Newton (1643–1727) was an English mathematician, physicist, and astronomer whose discoveries laid the foundation for classical physics. Best known for his laws of motion and universal gravitation, Newton revolutionized our understanding of how objects move and interact under force, shaping modern mechanics. His work in optics led to groundbreaking discoveries about light and color, while his development of calculus provided a powerful mathematical tool for scientific advancements. His book Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica (1687) remains one of the most influential works in science. Newton's genius and relentless curiosity cemented his legacy as one of history's greatest scientific minds.
