The Scientific Revolution (1500s-1700s) marked a pivotal shift in human understanding. During this period, thinkers in mathematics, science, physics, and philosophy began to challenge long-held beliefs, questioning the mysteries of nature and our place in the universe. Key figures such as Sir Isaac Newton, Galileo Galilei, and Nicholas Copernicus laid the foundations of modern science through the development of new theories and the scientific method. This era fostered a spirit of inquiry that led to unprecedented discoveries and laid the groundwork for modern scientific disciplines.
