Isaac Newton made his mark on physics when he developed his theory on gravitation. It totally destroyed Aristotle's concept of a dual sky. Unlike many scientists, Newton was unusual in that during his entire career as a scientist, he was in search of God. He also had unusual interests in mysticism as he had a life-long interest in alchemy and magic. Perhaps he was the best kind of scientist—one who was open to God, magic and science. He would believe whatever could be proven to him and left no stone unturned.
