Physics · Gravitation

Sir Isaac Newton discovered the inverse square law for gravity. He formulated it in his law of universal gravitation, stating that the force between two objects is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between their centers of mass. 

Developed the theory of general relativity, extending gravitational understanding beyond Newton's laws.

Pioneered observational astronomy and physics but did not formulate the inverse square law for gravity. 

Known for quantum theory and the concept of quantized energy levels, not related to the inverse square law of gravity.
