Episode Details

You thought we were all done with Newton, didn't you? You figured that three laws are enough for any scientist. Well think again! Newton was quite the champ, and his work with gravity was revolutionary. I mean, the guy invented calculus so that he could do his work on gravity. So when he INVENTED CALCULUS, he did it just so that math could exist that was complicated enough to do stuff that was more important than inventing calculus. Think about that for a while. Then watch this. Then think about it again.
