In 1803 #JohnDalton used the Laws of #Chemistry to propose the modern #AtomicTheory. It marks the birth of #QuantumTheory. (Dalton quantized mass a century before #MaxPlanck quantized energy.)
In 1914, #HenryMoseley used the X-ray emmisions of atoms to propose the quantization of #AtomicStructure.
Sadly, #Moseley was killed by a sniper a year later in the Battle of #Gallipoli in #Turkey. https://theconversation.com/how-science-lost-one-of-its-greatest-minds-in-the-trenches-of-gallipoli-45890
