An extraordinary genius and proficient physicist, mathematician, astronomer and alchemist,

Sir Isaac Newton is considered to be the greatest and the most influential scientist who ever
lived. One of the paramount contributors of the 17th century Scientific Revolution, he
developed the principles of modern physics which he laid out in his book, ‘Philosophiae,
Natrualis, Principia Mathematica’. Popularly known as Principia, the book highlighted the
concepts of universal gravitation and laws of motions which remained at the forefront of
science for centuries after. Furthermore, he worked on and developed the theory of color.
He was the first to lay out the fact that color is an intrinsic property of light and that when
reflected, scattered or transmitted, a white light decomposed into numerous colors that are
visible in the spectrum or in the rainbow. He was responsible for building the first practical
telescope. Newton also contributed to the study of power series, generalised the binomial
theorem to non-integer exponents, and developed method for approximating the roots of a
function. Apart from all the aforementioned, Newton made noteworthy and substantial
contribution in the field of alchemy and theology as well. In his life, he held numerous
significant positions such as serving as the Lucasian Professor of mathematics, President of
the Royal Society and Warden and Master of the Mint. Thus, it wouldn’t be wrong to say that
Newton, single-handedly, achieved milestones in physics that laid the groundwork for future
discoveries by scientists across the globe.

Do you fondly call the whiz kid in your class/ organization ‘Einstein’? If yes, then you aren’t
the only one who does so. People around the world honor their friends and acquaintance
with the title of ‘Einstein’ for the person’s immaculate brilliance and genius mind. While there
may be a lot of genius mind set at work to this date, only once in a century is Albert Einstein
born. The 19th century not just witnessed the birth of Albert Einstein, but with it, the birth of
modern physics. Rightly known as the Father of Modern Physics, Albert Einstein was,
without a doubt, the most influential physicist of the 20th century. With his research and
finding, Einstein created a revolution in the field of science. Amongst his numerous works:
(a) the general theory of relativity, which provided a unified description of gravity as a
geometric property of space and time, and (b) photoelectric effect that established the
quantum theory within physics are the most important ones. During his lifetime, Einstein
published more than 300 scientific papers, apart from 150 non-scientific works. He was the
proud recipient of numerous awards, such as Nobel Prize in Physics, Copley Medal,
Matteucci Medal and Max Planck medal. Other than these, he has also been credited by the
Times magazine as the Person of the Century. Such was his contribution to mankind that
his name Einstein has been made synonymous to being "genius".

Stephen William Hawking was an English theoretical physicist, cosmologist, author,

and Director of Research at the Centre for Theoretical Cosmology within the
University of Cambridge. His key exploration was in the areas of theoretical
cosmology, focusing on the evolution of the universe as governed by the laws of
general relativity. He is known for his work related to the study of black holes. With
the theoretical prediction that black holes emit radiation, a theory called ‘Hawking
radiation,' he became the first to set forth a cosmology explained by a union of the
general theory of relativity and quantum mechanics. Hawking suffered from a rare and
life-threatening condition of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, a condition he suffered all
of his adult life. The illness started when he was 21 and pursuing his PhD from
Cambridge University. For a major part of his later life, he was almost completely
paralyzed and communicated through a speech generating device. Not succumbing to
the despair of the disease, Hawking devoted all his life to his work and research. He
was the Lucasian Professor of Mathematics at the University of Cambridge for around
three decades and an Honorary Fellow of the Royal Society of Arts. For his
contribution to the study of universe and his pioneering work in cosmology, he was
made a Commander of the Order of the British Empire.

by English club Manchester United after his talent as a winger was spotted by their
legendary manager Sir Alex Ferguson. Ronaldo spent six years at Manchester United and
that was where he developed his game as a skillful, quick, lethal winger who could score
goals and create opportunities for his team mates. He won plenty of trophies for Manchester
United and also shone for the Portugual before he moved to Real Madrid as the world’s

Leonardo di ser Piero da Vinci is known to the world as a polymath, architect,

mathematician, musician, sculptor, engineer, inventor, anatomist and writer. Da Vinci is
considered to be a true Renaissance man who earned a great deal of proficiency in many
subjects. He is revered today because of his artistic contributions that defined and molded
the world of art and also because of his countless achievements in other notable fields. He
helped unravel the sciences, developed new art techniques and was also one of the first
people to dissect a human body. Da Vinci was also an accomplished musician and, for the
fetes, ballets, intermezzi and sonnets—of which the Renaissance period was so fond—
Leonardo was beyond compare. He was an embodiment of the spirit of Renaissance and
was known for his feverishly inventive imagination and unquenchable curiosity. Very few
artists of his time possessed the qualities and the vehemence to accomplish what he did.
Today, his art is priceless and his science is accredited. There are only about 15 of his
paintings that survive today and the ‘Mona Lisa’ is by far the most valuable one. To learn
