Sir Isaac Newton once wrote, “Truth is ever to be found in the simplicity, and not in the multiplicity and confusion of things.”
Far be it from me to argue with Isaac. You’d be aware that he was the guy who mathematically mapped gravity. But you might not be aware that he also figured out that white light was made up multiple other colours which we call the spectrum, created the first useful reflecting telescope, invented the mind-blurring mathematics of calculus, and developed his understanding of gravity to the point where he could not only calculate the tides, but proved beyond doubt to everyone but the criminally stupid that our solar system really is heliocentric. That’s a fancy word that means the planets revolve around the sun.
