He had many jobs such as designing artillery and planning river system diversions. Leonardo started to study human anatomy as he got further interested in science. Towards the end of Leonardo’s life he had a huge breakthrough in his scientific career by making a theory of what the four powers (Movement, weight, force and percussion) worked.
