Scientific Fact and Philosophical Fun
How a new idea is
coming from our minds?
A million ordinarily people observe natural phenomena, while few asked why? what matters is only observation and think to discover.

The Scientific Revolution about gravity
A timeline and philosophical thinking about the gravity starting from 460 BC up to date:
Democritus (460 BC to 370 BC) - Aristotle (384 BC to 322 BC) - Haytham (965 BC to 1050) - Galileo (1564 to 1642) - Newton (1642 to 1727) - Albert Einstein (1879 to 1955) - Steven Hackwin (1942 to 2018) - Erik Verlinde (1962).

A formal speech about gravity causes: Gravity is a natural phenomenon gives weight to physical object. Gravity causes to all matter
to be attracted to other matter, from the subatomic to the cosmic levels.
Democritus was the greatest pupil of Leucippus who wrote dozens of works on every field of knowledge. Democritus who was picking up the root idea of the atom from his teacher about the matter and the various kinds of atoms moving through the void and collided due to a force. This kind of justification of physical phenomena was the precursor to the theory of gravity and modern science (ref.1). Aristotle observe
and think logically about gravity, in his mind, theoretically, if he drops two
balls identical in all ways but mass, the heavier ball should fall faster than
a lighter one (ref.2). Galileo Galilei made the experiment with dropping balls and proven
Aristotle was wrong. By his experimental work, the two balls hit the ground at
the same time (ref.3).
Isaac Newton realized gravity from an apple fall from a tree. Any particle of matter in the universe attracts any other with a
force varying directly as the product of the masses and inversely as the square
of the distance between them, F=Gm1m2 / r2 (ref.4).
Einstein improved Newton's conception of space by adding time as a fourth
coordinate (ref.5). Quantum mechanics and gravity studied added by Steven Hackwin followed by Erik the lensing effect of gravity & dark
matter (the mysterious extra gravity). Thus, Newton's Law gives people a better understanding of what is
possible regarding motion (Figure 2.) also he learned about gravity from
the books of the great philosopher Ibn al-Haytham (ref.4)

and Wisdom
Bible Fact.
Everything was created for the purpose. The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and instruction (Prov. 1:7).Observe them carefully, for this will show your wisdom and understanding in the sight of the peoples, who shall hear of all these statutes and say, "Surely this great nation is a wise and understanding people." Deuter. 4:6.
Prov.1:7
የጥበብ መጀመሪያ እግዚአብሔርን መፍራት ነው፤ ሰነፎች ግን ጥበብንና ተግሣጽን ይንቃሉ።
4 ፤ እናንተ ግን አምላካችሁን እግዚአብሔርን የተከተላችሁ እስከ ዛሬ ድረስ ሁላችሁ በሕይወት ትኖራላችሁ።
5 ፤ እነሆ፥ እናንተ ገብታችሁ በምትወርሱአት ምድር ውስጥ እንዲህ ታደርጉ ዘንድ አምላኬ እግዚአብሔር እንዳዘዘኝ ሥርዓትንና ፍርድን አስተማርኋችሁ።
6 ፤ ጠብቁአት አድርጉአትም፤ ይህችን ሥርዓት ሁሉ ሰምተው። በእውነት ይህ ታላቅ ሕዝብ ጠቢብና አስተዋይ ሕዝብ ነው በሚሉ በአሕዛብ ፊት ጥበባችሁና ማስተዋላችሁ ይህ ነውና፤
