Isaac newton's experiments on gravity and his formulation of the laws of motion helped human beings go into space among other things. He is considered the most influential scientist of all time.

Newton did invent calculus, which is an important part of the language of todays modern physics together with group theory and topology. An ancient controversy of the history of science is whether he should share his invention of calculus with the German philosopher Leibniz. Recent historical reseach suggests they invented it independently of each other, but Newton was a couple decades earlier. However, he did not publish his results until long after his dicoveries, him being very secretive and knowing the power of his new mathematical tools, he wanted to keep it to himself, until he knew Leibniz had developed similar ideas. This lead to the bitter controversy between the two of who was the original inventor of calculus.

Sir Isaac newton helped us by discovering the theory of gravity and without gravity when we jump we would just float so know we know what gravity is and it is very important to us and to earth.

Newton's laws of motion caused a revolution in science because they could explain the motion of the planets in their elliptical orbits discovered by Kepler. The same laws of motion apply to everyday life in which we are subject to forces and accelerations.

Newton's laws and later developments of them make modern mechanical engineering possible, so we can thank Isaac for modern mechanical transport.

He also discovered the visible spectrum of colours, and reproduced the colours of the rainbow using a prism.
