Niels Bohr was born on October 7, 1885 and died November 18, 1962. Bohr was one of the four outstanding scientist who helped construct the atom. Niels contributed to the atomic structure and quantum theory. He received the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1922 for his work. Bohr was a physicist, philosopher, and a promoter of scientific research. Bohr’s proposal stated that the electron revolve in a stable orbit around the nucleus and that the energy levels in which the electrons are on are discrete. Bohr was the very first scientist to discover the electrons travel separately in energy levels. Bohr stated that an atom would not release radiation unless it was making a transition between states. An atom could not absorb or release radiation constantly
