'''Sir Isaac Newton''' ([[1642]]-[[1727]]) was an [[English]] physicist and mathematician. One of his most famous accomplishments was formulating the theory of [[gravity]]. The [[Fourth Doctor]] once claimed that he sat in Newton's tree dropping [[apple]]s onto his head, then explained gravity to him over dinner. ([[DW]]: ''[[The Pirate Planet]]'') It later came to light that Newton remained upset about that event, as his nose bled for three days afterward.
