One man who helped in the affair of shaping our society is a man named
Isaac Newton. Scientist, Philosopher, Physicist, Astronomer, and a
Mathematician all in one man. Accomplishment after another, this figure is to be honored for what we have today. A student at childhood, a well known scientist by adulthood. Isaac Newton was born in Woolsthorpe, England on January 4th,
1643. His father died three months before he was born due to unknown reasons. He was a farmer and did not know how to spell his own name.
When he was brought into the world, Isaac was so small his mother claimed he could fit into a quart pot. When his mother married another man named Barnabus Smith when Newton was three, she went to live with her new husband leaving him with his grandmother. When

This school led to many events in Newton’s life that would change his life. He graduated in that same year. In those two years of his life when the Plague was adrift on
Britain, Newton had marvelous ideas that are still in our life today.
In 1665 through 1666, Newton, along with Gottfried Wilhelm von Leibniz created calculus, a very complicated method in Mathematics. Although,
Newton and Leibniz had different thoughts about this idea. In the year of 1666 through 1667, Newton made the world’s first “Color
Spectrum”, a transparent, triangular prism it which when white light is shone through the object, the prism is able to “bend light” and release the light in a different direction emitting something resembling to a rainbow. This invention showed how white light is divided into its component colors, which consist of red, blue, green, violet, orange, and yellow. This lead him to develop his law of color and light. Also in the year of 1666, Newton conducted his three Laws
