Isaac Newton, he was a physicist, philosopher, theologian, inventor, English alchemist and mathematician, author of Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica, known as the Principia, where he discovered the law of universal gravitation and laid the foundations of classical mechanics with the laws that bear his name. His other works include scientific discoveries about the nature of light and optics and the development of mathematical calculation. Newton shares the credit for the development of differential and integral calculus, which used to formulate laws of physics. Also contributed in other areas of mathematics, developed the binomial theorem and the Newton-Cotes formulas. Between their scientific findings are the discovery of the color spectrum that is observed when white light passes through a prism is inherent in that light, rather than from the prism, his argument about the possibility that light was composed of particles, the development of a law of thermal convection, which describes the cooling rate of the objects exposed to air, their studies on the speed of sound in air and proposed a theory about the origin of stars. It was also a pioneer of fluid mechanics, establishing a law on the viscosity.



Galileo Galilei, he was an astronomer, philosopher, Italian mathematician and physicist who is closely associated with the scientific revolution. Eminent Renaissance man showed interest in almost all sciences and arts (music, literature and painting). His accomplishments include improving the telescope, a variety of astronomical observations, the first law of motion and decisive support for the Copernican. Has been considered the "father of modern astronomy," the "father of modern physics” and the" father of science".
