Best Answer

He discovered gravity when an apple fell on his big forehead. He discovered that the same force acts between the Sun and the planets to make them move in stable elliptical orbits. To do that he had to invent the laws of motion and also the differential calculus. Quite a feat that no-one else had managed, even after 1500 years of thinking (he died while thinking) about how the planets moved around.
