5 Ptolemy Greek Astronomer Developed the Ptolemaic System
Earth is the center of the universe (Geocentric view) Was he correct…?

6

7 Nicolaus Copernicus Polish astronomer and mathematician
Copernican view Sun is the center of the universe (Heliocentric View) Was he correct…?

10 Galileo Galilei Italian Astronomer/ Mathematician See pg. 296
Built the world's 1st telescope Began to prove the ideas of Copernicus Heliocentricity

11 Isaac Newton Principia
Newton's First Law (also known as the Law of Inertia) states that an object at rest tends to stay at rest until acted upon by a net external force. Newton's Second Law states that the acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the magnitude of the net force acting on the object and inversely proportional to its mass. Newton's Third Law states that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. Explains gravity

12 Medical Advancements

13 Galen Ancient Greece Medical Physician Encouraged dissection
Dissect animals to learn about human anatomy Anatomy

14 Andreas Vesalius Belgium Medical Physician
On the Fabric of the Human Body More accurate depiction of human anatomy Actually dissected humans Anatomy

prior thoughts by the Catholic Church.

17 Robert Boyle England Chemistry The Skeptical Chymist
Conducted Controlled Experiments Boyle's Law

18 Antoine Lavoisier Chemistry Father of Modern Chemistry
Named 33 elements Ex #1…Oxygen Ex #2…Hydrogen Established the Metric System

Women’s Rights/ Feminism

21 New Philosophy

22 Rene Descartes France Philosophy Discourse on Method
