	Isaac Newton's early life and achievements - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Newton's mother's brother, William Ayscough, the rector of Burton Coggles, the next parish, was a graduate of Trinity College, Cambridge, and when he found that Newton's mind was devoted to mechanical and mathematical problems, he urged Mrs Smith to send her son to Trinity.
		Newton's "philosophical discovery" was the realisation that white light is composed of a spectrum of colours.
		Newton, by calculating from Kepler's laws, and supposing the orbits of the planets to be circles round the sun in the centre, had already proved that the force of the sun acting upon the different planets must vary as the inverse square of the distances of the planets from the sun.

	Newton (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		Isaac Newton was born in the manor house of Woolsthorpe, near Grantham in Lincolnshire.
		Newton explained a wide range of previously unrelated phenomena: the eccentric orbits of comets, the tides and their variations, the precession of the Earth's axis, and motion of the Moon as perturbed by the gravity of the Sun.
		Newton was at the height of his standing - seen as a leader of the university and one of the most eminent mathematicians in the world.

	Sir Isaac Newton (1642 - 1727)
		Newton replied saying that he had abandoned the study of philosophy, but he added that the earth's diurnal motion might be proved by the experiment of observing the deviation from the perpendicular of a stone dropped from a height to the ground - an experiment which was subsequently made by the Society and succeeded.
		Newton assumed that all geometrical magnitudes might be conceived as generated by continuous motion; thus a line may be considered as generated by the motion of a point, a surface by that of a line, a solid by that of a surface, a plane angle by the rotation of a line, and so on.
		Newton then went on to apply these results to questions connected with the maxima and minima of quantities, the method of drawing tangents to curves, and the curvature of curves (namely, the determination of the centre of curvature, the radius of curvature, and the rate at which the radius of curvature increases).

	Newton's Birth Date and The Anni Mirabiles
		It's usually said that Isaac Newton was born on Christmas Day, but there is some ambiguity in this because England was still using the "old" Julian calender at the time of Newton's birth, whereas the rest of Europe had adopted the "modern" Gregorian calender (later adopted by England and still in use today).
		According to the modern calender, Newton was born on 4 January 1643, but according to the calender in force at the time and place of his birth, he was born on 25 December 1642.
		This was the period during which Isaac, having been sent home from college because of the Plague epidemic, occupied his time by inventing calculus, discovering the chromatic composition of light, and conceiving of the inverse-square law of universal gravitation...

	FNF: ISAAC NEWTON 2001-03-21
		Of these Cambridge years, in which Newton was at the height of his creative power, he singled out 1665-1666 (spent largely in Lincolnshire because of plague in Cambridge) as "the prime of my age for invention".
		Newton originally applied the idea of attractions and repulsions solely to the range of terrestrial phenomena mentioned in the preceding paragraph.
		Newton did not like being corrected, least of all by Hooke, but he had to accept the basic point; he corrected Hooke's figure, however, using the assumption that gravity is constant.

		Newton's relations with Hooke deteriorated further when, in 1675, Hooke claimed that Newton had stolen some of his optical results.
		Given the rage that Newton had shown throughout his life when criticised, it is not surprising that he flew into an irrational temper directed against Leibniz.

		In 1672 Newton was elected a fellow of the Royal Society after donating a reflecting telescope.
		However, perhaps because of Newton's already high reputation, his corpuscular theory reigned until the wave theory was revived in the 19th century.

		Barrow persuades Newton to allow him to demonstrate the telescope to the Royal Society, where it causes a sensation. Newton writes De methodis serierum et fluxionum (On the Method of Series and Fluxions), expounding the principles of calculus, though this is not published until 1736.
		Leibniz visits London in October and (without Newton's knowledge) is shown a copy of Newton's 'De Analysi' by John Collins. However, Leibniz has already independently established the fundamental principles of calculus, though (as he later acknowledges) he learns much from Newton's work on series expansion.
		Newton is said to have lost £20,000 in the South Sea Bubble according to Catherine Conduitt.

	William R. Newman: Theology in the Laboratory? New Light on Isaac Newton's Alchemy
		Preface: Sir Isaac Newton is one of my scientific heroes when I was doing graduate research in physical chemistry at Cornell.
		My fascination with Newton stems from the fact that not only did he revolutionized physics with his Principia, but he also explored religion (Commentaries on the Book of Daniel) as well as conducting alchemical studies as a spiritual discipline.
		It seemed as if Newton's spirit came in to hear a topic that is so sacred and secret to his heart.

	History of Modern Astronomy
		The first reflecting telescope was constructed by Isaac Newton in 1668, based partially on a design created in 1663 by James Gregory (1638-75); one reason was the intention to overcome chromatical aberration.
		This is Newton's law of gravitation, which formed the foundation of treating not only the two-body problem of a planet moving around the Sun, but also of the many-body problem.
		Another fraction of astronomers, including astrophotographer Isaac Roberts who interpreted his photo of the Andromeda "nebula" M31, thought these nebulae were solar systems in formation (with the companions M32 and NGC 205 [M110] supposed as forming Jovian planets).
