Johannes Kepler was born on December 27‚ 1571 in Weil der Stadt‚ Germany to parents Heinrich and Katharina Kepler . From a very young age‚ Johannes faced countless amounts of struggles‚ most notably the death of his father at the tender age of five. In addition to this tragedy‚ Kepler had crippled hands and impaired eyesight‚ due to his bad health. Despite his physically damaged self‚ Kepler was able to thrive cognitively. He could solve any problem with numbers and questioned everything‚ the habit

Humans started using it since the prehistoric times‚ from the discovery and learning the ability to control fire and converting raw materials into simple tools. People explored and discovered it further until it came to its modern usage. From the first communicative carvings to globe-spinning communication networks‚ human attempted to use

The Columbian Exchange was the trafficking of goods‚ ideas‚ and disease between the Americas and Europe that took place during and after the Age of Exploration. From the Americas‚ Europe would get new crops such as corn‚ white and sweet potatoes‚ tomatoes and tobacco. Europe would also see some new diseases originating from the Americas‚ most notably syphilis. Though not as rich in large food animals as Europe‚ some New World animals would make their way back including turkeys. The major portion

The Age of Enlightenment refers to the 18th century in European philosophy‚ and is often thought of as part of a larger period which includes the Age of Reason. The term also more specifically refers to a historical intellectual movement‚ "The Enlightenment." This movement advocated rationality as a means to establish an authoritative system of ethics‚ aesthetics‚ and knowledge. The intellectual leaders of this movement regarded themselves as courageous and elite‚ and regarded their purpose as leading

Sir Isaac Newton once said “What we know is a drop‚ what we don’t know is an ocean.” This means that there is so much waiting to be uncovered. With the knowledge that there is more to the world than what meets the eye‚ Newton went on to discover the laws of motion. Newton’s first law of motion is commonly referred to as the law of inertia. Newton’s second law of motion has to do with acceleration. Newton’s third law of motion explains the forces involved when two objects interact. These three laws

Scientific advancement was by far the most interesting. Sir Isaac Newton is acknowledged with his theory of gravity and John Locke was accredited for noting the fact that knowledge is gained by experience. Up until these theories had been proved many people believed that spiritual Gods controlled their destiny. Advancement

gov) Understanding the physics of heat transfer will surely help with this experiment. Another significant fact for further understanding and performing this experiment is the discovery of the science of cooling. Several hundred years ago‚ Sir Isaac Newton made an important discovery about how fast things cool down. He found that the rate of cooling depends on the temperature difference between an object and its surroundings. In other words‚ the hotter something is‚ compared with its surroundings

Who remembers the mediocre people? I remember Sir Isaac Newton‚ but no one person who knew him. A genius basically has two choices‚ either to flee the city or country and lives in exile‚ or become a mediocre himself. But there is another choice‚ which not many people have the strength to pursue‚ and that
