Top 10 Greatest Scientists




There is no doubt that scientist have contributed greatly to the continued development of the present society. Some of the things that we enjoy today such as electricity are but innovations of someone who dedicated his life. Unlike other professions, scientists are well known for giving up everything else to research as well as innovation. It is well documented in history of scientist who were persecuted for their cause but that did not stop them from making the breakthroughs that they made. In a bid to celebrate scientist around the world, the article seeks to highlight some of the greatest scientists of all times.








1. Aristotle 




Aristotle is well known as the greatest philosopher of his time. He had wide knowledge regarding different disciplines something that has been managed only by a few scientists. His contribution ranges from physics, zoology, biology, politics, ethics and logic amongst others. Contributions made by Aristotle can still be felt in the present age despite having lived hundreds of years ago.








2. Sir Isaac Newton 



Probably considered as one of the greatest scientist of his time. Just like Aristotle, Isaac Newton was well versed in different subject areas such as mathematics, physics and natural philosophy amongst others. Isaac Newton is best known for his contribution in attempting and managing to explain gravitational law as well as the three laws of motion. Nothing in the previous life of this great man of science suggested that he would be one of the celebrated scientists but managed to overcome all the barriers before him to excel.








3. Galileo Galilei




Up-to-date, Galileo Galilei is still considered as having made the greatest contribution to science. Despite having been persecuted by the church for what he believed in, that did not deter him from making discoveries that are still being used in the present age. Not only was he a physicist but also an astronomer as well as a philosopher. His contributions to science include creation of telescope and first two laws of motion.








4. Charles Robert Darwin


Coming in at number four is Charles Darwin even though there are those who dispute to him having been a scientist in the first place. His contributions major on origin of man. He is also known to have traveled extensively around the world so as to prove his theories.








5. Albert Einstein 



Looking at the past of Albert Einstein nobody would not have thought that a boy who could not talk till he attained the age of three and had to weight till he was eight years of age to read could be one of the greatest scientists of all time. In spite of all the hurdles that faced him, he managed to win noble peace prize for the contributions he made in physics.








6. Thomas Edison


No other scientist has managed to have under their belts over 1000 patents for innovations made as Thomas Edison. Somehow, just like Einstein, Thomas had learning challenges. His innovations include the phonograph as well as the electric bulb.








7. Alessandro Giuseppe Antonio Anastasio Volta


An Italian, Volta made his contribution as a scientist by adding to the development of the electric battery. The unit for measuring electric unit- Volt is named after him as an honor for his contributions.








8. Stephen Hawking


After Albert Einstein passed on, nobody really thought that the age of scientist had passed, but adding to the number of greatest scientists who ever lived in the twentieth century is Stephen Hawking. He is well renowned for the big bang theory as well as the black hole theory. In addition, he has also taught at the University of Cambridge as a professor of mathematics.








9. Louis Pasteur


Louis is best known for the contributions he has made in the medical field. The germ theory was first introduced by Louis and has continued to be applied in the study of microbiology.








10. Sir Jagadish Chandra Bose



Jagadish is well renowned for the contribution to the invention of radio and microwave. Being the first Bengali scientist, he has made several contribution to science








The above list only tries to mention some of the best scientist of all times and does not mean that other scientist not mentioned above have not in anyway made contributions in their respective fields. As the world and technology advances, contributions are still being made on how to make present electric devices more efficient and affordable. For instance, after innovation of internet, there has been continued development to ensure that access to the we is not only cheap but simpler.

Indian Unknown Secrets-Astonishing

Richest Country in the World !!! 
 
https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/graphics/flags/large/in-lgflag.gif

EYE OPENER !!!!!!!!



Right now, India is the richest country in the world! Wondering how? It's really amazing.



(1) It's due to Mr. G Vaidyaraj, who donated all his wealth, about which he actually did not know.

He is a descendant of Raja Krishnadev Raya from Mysore district.

For the last 300 years or so, three stones were worshipped in his house.But nobody tried to see what it was, except this person, who is a
lawyer by profession. One day, when there was nobody in his house, he took the stone out to see what it was that they worship.
Due to the dust deposited on it, from many many years, it looked only like a simple stone.
But when he touched it, some portion of the stone was cleansed.
And he saw a bright ray of light.
He saw something which attracted his attention. And he was amazed when he cleaned all of them.The whole room was filled with light.
He discovered they were diamonds of about 4600 carats each.

He informed the Govt. of India and the news is censored with its security.
It's now deposited in a Swiss Bank.
The cost of single diamond exceeds the GDP of USA + UK .

Even World Bank does not have enough money to buy it.
India can buy virtually 7 developing nations.

One diamond costs thrice the debt of World Bank over India .

One such diamond can buy 10 Bill Gates to you.

And the World Bank has proposed the Indian Govt. that it can pay India in Installment if it wishes to do so.

India 's GDP is 34.25 billion dollars.

Bill Gates property is 95 billion dollars approximate so that is the way 'nature changes'.

Our Prime Minister has refused to sell it.

He said it will be sold or mortgaged for credit when we need it. Otherwise right now we have no problems.

You can go through Times of India with a small column on it a week ago.


Star TV presented a 115 min documentary on it about 15 days ago.

The Hindu with its half page article in it.

After that it was censored as classified.


(2) Another good news is that in the Desert of Thar RAJISTHAN(BORDERING SINDH) a deposit of Oil and Natural gas have been found. This stores what Kuwait has in its stomach.

India can go with the ONGC energy reserve with another 30 years.And moreover it can export it to other counties.

It's incredible!! But true.

(3) An Indian boy in his 12th standard has disproved Einstein's 'Theory of Relativity'.
Shocked? Read on...

Sudarshan Reddy has theoretically proven the existence of a sub-atomic particle, which can travel at speed greater than that of light, thereby challenging one of the fundamental postulates of the 'Theory of Relativity'.

In his recent research paper submitted to the Institute of Advanced Physics (IAP) at Trieste ( Italy ), Sudarshan has proved the existence of a class of sub-atomic particles called leptons', which can travel faster than light.

The international physics community is shocked by this discovery.


Dr.Massimo Martelli, President of the IAP has this to say about the paper submitted by Sudarshan. 'After long, careful and critical analysis, I can confidently say that Sudarshan's research papers show tremendous leap in our understanding of physics.
His investigation
mounts up on 'leptons'.. His work builds substantially on the work of Einstein and others in the field of relativity.'
When
physicists from Princeton University tried to measure Sudarshan's IQ with an IQ-meter (at the American Embassy in Delhi ), the meter broke down.
Sudarshan, incidentally, is the brother of Madhu Reddy, the Indian whiz kid who developed an operating system superior to Microsoft Windows.
We should all be very proud of these boys.

Most Expensive Coffee

An Animal That Poops Gourmet Coffee:

Say Hello to the Civet: The Maker of $600 Coffee.

Yes, it's true -- this mammal, native to Africa and Asia, is responsible for pooping out the world's most expensive coffee, called Kopi Luwak. Civets are fed coffee cherries, and during digestion the animal's enzymes mix with the coffee beans before they, ahem, pass through, giving the beans a unique, bitter taste. See how it all happens...
