Isaac Newton
by James Gleick
“Let no one suppose that the mighty work of
Newton can really be superceded by this or any
other theory. His great and lucid ideas will retain
their unique significance for all time as the
foundation of our whole modern conceptual
structure in the sphere of natural philosophy.” –
Albert Einstein (1919) – quoted in Isaac Newton.

Imagine being on a ship at sea, during an era when
there were no global positioning satellites and no
radios. Maps were inaccurate, and the keeping of
precise time aboard ship was impossible.

Aquatic Ecology – Scientists at Australia’s Scientific and Industrial
Research Organization (CSIRO) have discovered hundreds of new
marine species and dozens of undersea mountains in a project to
monitor the Commonwealth Marine Reserve Network off southern
Tasmania. This scientific endeavor is intended to take inventories of
biodiversity and habitats, and further the ongoing monitoring of the
Marine Reserve Network. The science team’s findings included 274
species new to science and a further 80 seamounts, or undersea
mountains, which are some of the most biologically important
habitats in our oceans. <<More>>

Astro Physics - A team of scientists led by the University of Maryland has discovered a
new source of cosmic rays that is relatively near the Earth. Cosmic rays are actually
charged particles, including protons and electrons that are accelerated to high energies
from sources both outside and inside our galaxy. The sources of cosmic rays have been
a mystery since they were first discovered almost a 100 years ago. <<More>>
