He was born on January 4, 1643 and died on march 31, 1727. He was a physicist and a mathematician who developed the principles of modern physics, also the laws of motion, and was credited with one of the greatest minds of the 17th century. Newton made discoveries in optics, motion and mathematics. In 1668 he designed and constructed a reflecting telescope.
Newton created a theory of gravity, it states that two objects attract each other with a force of gravitational attraction that's proportional to their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between their centers. This theory explained how the planets are kept in orbit by the pull of the sun's gravity. This also helps him calculate the mass of each planet.
