Today is Sir Isaac Newton birthday. Isaac Newton was an English physicist, mathematician, astronomer, natural philosopher, alchemist, and theologian who is perceived and considered by a substantial number of scholars and the general public as one of the most influential scientists in history.

Newton himself often told the story that he was inspired to formulate his theory of gravitation by watching the fall of an apple from a tree.

Today Google has changed their logo and placed Apples on it. If you go to the Google homepage, you’ll notice the logo above along with an animated falling Apple. Google created this logo to celebrate the birth date of Sir Isaac Newton.
