Sir Isaac Newton (1643-1727)

Famous for observing an apple fall from a tree, from which he formulated the theory of gravity the invisible force that draws everything towards the centre of the Earth, and keeps the Earth and other planets orbiting around the Sun. He experimented with prisms, splitting a beam of light and proving that white light is made up of a spectrum of all the colours.
