Sir Isaac Newton PRS (/ˈnjuːtən/; 25 December 1642 – 20 March 1726/27) was an English physicist and mathematician (described in his own day as a "natural philosopher") who is widely recognised as one of the most influential scientists of all time and as a key figure in the scientific revolution. His book Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica ("Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy"), first published in 1687, laid the foundations for classical mechanics. Newton made seminal contributions to optics, and he shares credit with Gottfried Leibniz for the development of calculus.
Newton's Principia formulated the laws of motion and universal gravitation, which dominated scientists' view of the physical universe for the next three centuries. By deriving Kepler's laws of planetary motion from his mathematical description of gravity, and then using the same principles to account for the trajectories of comets, the tides, the precession of the equinoxes, and other phenomena, Newton removed the last doubts about the validity of the heliocentric model of the Solar System. This work also demonstrated that the motion of objects on Earth and of celestial bodies could be described by the same principles. His prediction that Earth should be shaped as an oblate spheroid was later vindicated by the measurements of Maupertuis, La Condamine, and others, which helped convince most Continental European scientists of the superiority of Newtonian mechanics over the earlier system of Descartes.
Isaac (/ˈaɪzək/;Hebrew: יִצְחָק, Modern Yitskhak, Tiberian Yiṣḥāq, ISO 259-3 Yiçḥaq, "[he] will laugh"; Ancient Greek: Ἰσαάκ Isaak Arabic: إسحاق or إسحٰقʼIsḥāq) as described in the Hebrew Bible and the Qur'an, was the second son of Abraham, the only son Abraham had with his wife Sarah, and the father of Jacob and Esau. According to the Book of Genesis, Abraham was 100 years old when Isaac was born, and Sarah was past 90.
According to the Genesis narrative, Abraham brought Isaac to Mount Moriah, where, at God's command, Abraham built a sacrificial altar to sacrifice Isaac. This event served as a test of Abraham's faith. At the last moment an angel stopped him.
Isaac was one of the three patriarchs of the Israelites. Isaac was the only biblical patriarch whose name was not changed, and the only one who did not move out of Canaan. Compared to Abraham and Jacob, the Bible relates fewer incidents of Isaac's life. He died when he was 180 years old, making him the longest-lived of the three.

300-year-old Isaac Newton's books have been found. A series of books believed to be the original work of Sir Isaac Newton have been found by a student at Newcastle-under-Lyme School, Staffordshire in the United Kingdom. The books are over 300 years old, and contain Newton's ideas about the principles of gravity and his famous laws of motion. The set of three books, published in Latin are titled Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica, which translated means Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy. The three books have a publication date of July 5, 1687. Sir Isaac Newton is credited with discovering the mathematics behind the law of gravity, and other laws of motion. His work was not translated into English until the year after his death, but he is one of the most famo...
This video explores three books written by two authors, David Flynn and T.W. Tramm, regarding the unusual circumstances surrounding Isaac Newton's unpublished papers for nearly two centuries. Some scholars believed the papers weren't released so that Newton's legacy as a scientist would be protected. Or, was there some other reason? Was Isaac Newton hiding a time-bound Bible prophecy based on the Book of Daniel until the time of the end? Yes, he was. Newton's prophecy concerned the resurrection of the dead and the completion of the Holy City according to Daniel 9:22-27, with a completed Temple and Jesus as the Ark of that Temple. Most people would find this preposterous, since Jerusalem (the "Holy City") does not have a rebuilt Temple. But Isaac Newton wasn't necessarily referring to a ph...
Isaac Newton Jr. là một nhà vật lý, nhà thiên văn học, nhà triết học, nhà toán học, nhà thần học và nhà giả kim người Anh, được nhiều người cho rằng là nhà khoa học vĩ đại và có tầm ảnh hưởng lớn nhất. Theo lịch Julius, ông sinh ngày 25 tháng 12 năm 1642 và mất ngày 20 tháng 3 năm 1727; theo lịch Gregory, ông sinh ngày 4 tháng 1 năm 1643 và mất ngày 31 tháng 3 năm 1727. Luận thuyết của ông về Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica (Các Nguyên lý Toán học của Triết học Tự nhiên) xuất bản năm 1687, đã mô tả về vạn vật hấp dẫn và 3 định luật Newton, được coi là nền tảng của cơ học cổ điển, đã thống trị các quan niệm về vật lý, khoa học trong suốt 3 thế kỷ tiếp theo. ông cho rằng sự chuyển động của các vật thể trên mặt đất và các vật thể trong bầu trời bị chi phối bởi các định luật tự n...
Me reading Sir Isaac Newton's 'Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy and His System of The World' over some quiet music and binaural ambient sounds. It's a fantastic book once you get to Newton's actual writing; it's amazing to read what are many first instances of well known laws presented in very clear and impressive ways, including his thinking in coming to such profound conclusions. I started with the prefaces as I wanted this to be a rough test. It turns out even doing that takes a few hours of recording and editing Due to forgetting I had made a binaural microphone until I came to add the ambient layer, the book is read into a Zoom H1. When I come to record the next part, I'll remember to use the binaural microphone for all sections.
Isaac Newton applied his inquisitive and diligent mind to unscramble the prophesies of Daniel concerning return of Christ. Here is a simplified presentation of his interpretation of Daniel 9:24-27.
Isaac Newton was the first to make a reflecting telescope, first to describe the law of gravity, first to describe the laws of motion, first to use a prism to show how sunlight is made of seven colors (same as the rainbow), invented Calculus. He also gave his testimony that there is a God, a Deity, a Creator, and Isaac Newton was a Christian (not Catholic). I show you my Linux Mint 12 desktop, used to order a book through eBay: Life of Sir Isaac Newton, published in 1831, written by David Brewster, perhaps previously owned by John Watson in 1834. (I used free software to edit this video: Kdenlive and Audacity on Linux Mint 12.) Isaac Newton studied the prophecies in the Holy Bible, including the book of Revelation, also called the Apocalypse of St John. Jesus is Lord and God has rai...
