Sir Isaac Newton, 1642-1727, was an English mathematician, physicist, astronomer, alchemist, theologian, and author (described in his time as a "natural philosopher") widely recognized as one of the greatest mathematicians and physicists of all time and among the most influential scientists. His work with optics, F = ma (Force equals Mass times Acceleration), gravitational attraction (F = G m1 m2 / r^2), orbital mechanics and more are celebrated on the coins and currency of many countries.
