The revolutionary power of the Principia and other Newtonian works is felt to this day: His celestial mechanics guide the paths of satellites and spacecraft‚ his reflecting telescope is enabling astronomers to study recently discovered supernovas‚ his numerical methods are used in computers and his mathematics and approach to solving many physical problems remain as vital today as in his time (Weisburd 53). Newton is also given the credit for the creation of calculus‚ as well as the concept
