A Historic Event


        Legend goes on discovery of                        
        Universal Law of Gravitation
        as an apple from tree just fell off
       on ground, watched by Sir Isaac Newton.

         He considered ripen apple  
          as experimental sample.
         Free fall of fruit made him curious.
        Scientist started thinking serious.
     
        On detachment from stalk aftermath
         the apple neither hangs in air
         nor goes up under wind’s care,
         but is bound to fall on Earth.
         
         Great Gravitational force is responsible.
        To escape attraction of Earth is impossible
         for all earthly materials.
        Gravity claims credentials. 
                                          
    The Mathematician and Physicist Sir Isaac Newton discovered Theory of 
   Gravity. Gravitational Force acts between all pairs of bodies. He formulated 
    the Inverse Square Law of Universal Gravitation in 1687.
