Why Newton and not Einstein? I know we have to thank Newton for the laws of gravity, but his field was physics, not astronomy.
Your post fills me with mixed feelings. On the one hand, Einstein should definitely be in there. But on the other hand, saying Newton didn’t have significant contributions to astronomy is the closest thing to scientific blasphemy.
I’m not saying that. I just think in a list of important ASTRONOMERS (as in, people in the fields of Astronomy and Astrophysics) Einstein ranks above Newton. In general physics, Newton is above all.
I believe the reason why Newton is in there is because his work on gravitational forces in general helped to explain the entire mechanics of the solar system. Elliptical orbits and the centripetal forces that keep them going are credited to him. If that isnt a giant advancement in astronomy, i dont know what is.
You see? Now you get it!
Because he’s fucking brilliant. During the Black Plague he went out of the city to avoid fucking dying. And since they didn’t have TVs or fucking XBOX 360s he decided to invent differential calculus because fuck you he’s Isaac Newton.
Actually he just stayed home because the only place he hung out, Cambridge Universtity, was closed at the time.
