Isaac Newton: Formulated the laws of motion and universal gravitation, foundational to classical physics.
11. Chemistry
Robert Boyle (1627-1691): Known for Boyle’s Law and distinguishing chemistry from alchemy.
Antoine Lavoisier (1743-1794): The father of modern chemistry, he established the law of conservation of mass and clarified the role of oxygen in combustion.
12. Geography
Eratosthenes: Calculated the Earth’s circumference.
Ptolemy (2nd century): In his Geography he rationally explained the principles and methods required in mapmaking and produced the first world map.
Alexander von Humboldt (1769-1859): Integrated physical and human geography through extensive exploration and observation.
