A fragile manuscript telling the original story of how Newton was inspired by a falling apple has been made public for the first time, the Daily Mail reported. The account of Newton's eureka moment, which led to his famous theory of gravity, forms part of William Stukeley's 1752 biography of the great scientist. The manuscript doesn't mention that Newton was hit by a falling apple and therefore developed his famous theory of gravity. It reads: "The notion of gravitation was occasion'd by the fall of an apple."

 

 

 

 

 

据英国《每日邮报》报道,一份记录牛顿受苹果启发发现万有引力定律过程的残缺手稿首次与公众见面。这份手稿是英国科学家威廉•斯蒂克利1752年自传中的一部分。斯蒂克利的手稿并没有提及牛顿是受砸中脑袋苹果的启发,才发现了众人所知的万有引力定律。他写到:"他看见一个苹果从树上落下,从而想到了万有引力这个概念。"
