There is a giant controversy over the fact of how Isaac Newton discovered gravity. The controversy had many versions, some people said that it wasn't even Isaac Newton who discovered gravity, while some say that the apple that was said to hit his head never actually did. Other questions arise when we think of these, such as, what was Isaac Newton doing when he discovered gravity?
The first controversy, did Isaac Newton actually discover gravity? The answer is yes, Isaac Newton did discover gravity. Although some people may disagree with this statement, it has been historically proven through very old documents and letters. So, yes he did actually discover gravity.
The second controversy, much larger than the first, was did the apple actually hit Isaac Newton in the head? And the answer was no. Isaac Newton was under an apple tree, but when the apple fell it landed next to him. It did not hit him in the head.
Almost everyone knows what Isaac Newton was doing when he discovered gravity, well, it wasn’t really the discovery of gravity, it was what made him want to start researching gravity. Some of his friends and acquaintances had papers or books that confirmed the story of him sitting under the tree. So, sometimes it is just how it seams...
Although there were many controversies over what happened on the fabled day of the discovery of gravity. Some people know Isaac by his name, or by Mr. Newton, or by Isaac Newton, or even by Mr. Gravity, but what we do know is that Isaac Newton really was the Father Of Gravity.
