Isaac Newton was born in 1643 in Woolsthorpe, England. As a young boy, he was fascinated by the workings of the natural world and spent much of his time studying and conducting experiments. He attended King's School in Grantham, where he excelled in mathematics and was accepted into Trinity College, Cambridge University. At Cambridge, Newton honed his skills in mathematics and optics, making groundbreaking discoveries that would change the course of science. His most notable achievement was the formulation of the laws of motion and universal gravitation, which he presented in his work \Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica\ in 1687. Newton's discoveries revolutionized the field of physics and earned him wide recognition. He was elected as a Fellow of the Royal Society and became its president in 1703. He spent the rest of his life in Cambridge, continuing his research and publishing his findings. Newton's work laid the foundation for countless scientific advancements and remained influential for centuries.
