Who Is The Greatest Scientist Ever, Albert Elsten Or Isaac Newton? by Nobody: 8:20pm On Feb 04, 2013
This question had been bothering my mind from the past 2 years. Who should be consider the greatest scientist, there are many great scientists like charles darwin ,plato,heisenberg, gallileo gallile,flemin,faraday,de brogile,dalton e.t.c. But this two scientists elston and newton were so smart,hard working,brilliant and they were genius during their time. who do you think is the greatest between them.

Hmmmmm, me too I am confused...

Newton invented calculus, which has been used to solve various complex formulae... And don't forget his popular law "action and reaction are equal and opposite"

But einstein, he discovered that time and space are one and the same, he said the speed of light is constant and nothing is faster than light!!! He also said matter and energy can be created and destroyed, using E=mc^2

So... I can't really say

@lagusta Thanks for your reply. Elsten rewrite modern physics and his great work of relativity but newton first,second and third law of motion are so important especially the second law F = ma and his of gravitational force.

Wel,its newton,,rem he discovad d dispertion of white lit inwich mos scientist ar nw discovrin electromagnetic rayz frm it,and also remember dat without iz formula 4 forc of atractnz in da spac,scientist wuldnt av derivd escap velocity wich elpd dem in lunchin shuttles and also gav dem d ful evidenc of d spac and d shap of d earth...albert only extendd newtons works cous i dnt see any of newtons work he condemnd bt slightly modifid dem,xo Newton iz d fundamental of physics,am sur albert wuldnt av thought of gravity in his researches..bt i just creditd albert 4 iz relativity and iz popular formula dat az bin givin scientist prob 4 yearz!,and also extendd our undastandin about d space...and rem he also saved plank's condemd quantum discovery....bt me neva see faraday der cous he also ad a great impact in physicz*winks*

Đíŝ is actually impossible 2 determine because Öѵ d large time difference b/w Ƌƹм. Dae both were miles ahead Öѵ dia mates during dia own time n did great great stuff.

Einstein did more thingz cuz he had a larger amount Öѵ info 2 work wid.

But dat takes nuttin away from newton's work.
At his time, der was basically nuttin 2 work wid.

Bottom line. It cannot be determined.

But if Ï'm forced 2 choose. It'll be einstein

to me i would say newton is greater cos it would be like saying Philo Farnsworth who invented the electrical television is greater than michael faraday who discover electricity.

Alpha Maximus: It is irrefutably Isaac Newton. He laid the foundation for the works of majority of scientists after his generation, including Albert Einstein.....don't even get me started on his work on Calculus....majority of people just hear about the all-too popular E=mc2 formula and assume Einstein is the godfather of science.....Newton's estimated IQ is even higher than Einstein's....but its his accomplishments that matter anyway
