¿Sabían que la NASA no usó una sola fórmula mágica sino las leyes físicas de Isaac Newton escritas en el siglo XVII para calcular la ruta exacta que llevó al Apolo 11 a la Luna?
Para lograr que los astronautas llegaran a su destino el 20 de julio de 1969, los ingenieros de la NASA se basaron por completo en la Ley de Gravitación Universal de Isaac Newton. Esta famosa regla de la física donde se calcula la fuerza de atracción entre dos objetos en el espacio según sus masas y la distancia que los separa. El gran reto del viaje espacial es que la Tierra, la Luna y la nave se mueven al mismo tiempo, un problema físico hipercomplejo conocido formalmente como el problema de los tres cuerpos que no se puede resolver con una simple operación de lápiz y papel.
Para resolver este laberinto matemático, los científicos dividieron el viaje en pequeñas partes utilizando un método de cálculo numérico llamado método de Encke. Las computadoras de la época, como la famosa computadora de guía del Apolo que era menos potente que cualquier teléfono celular actual, repetían miles de veces estas ecuaciones paso a paso para corregir el rumbo constantemente. De esta manera, el equipo de la misión lograba predecir con números exactos cómo la gravedad de la Tierra iba soltando la nave mientras la gravedad de la Luna empezaba a jalarla hacia su superficie. El éxito de la misión demostró que las matemáticas puras de hace trescientos años combinadas con la tecnología de programación de los años sesenta eran capaces de trazar un camino perfecto de ida y vuelta a través de 384,400 kilómetros de vacío espacial.

Para lograr que los astronautas llegaran a su destino el 20 de julio de 1969, los ingenieros de la NASA se basaron por completo en la Ley de Gravitación Universal de Isaac Newton. Esta famosa regla de la física se representa de forma matemática mediante la ecuación $F = G \frac{m_1 m_2}{r2}$, donde se calcula la fuerza de atracción entre dos objetos en el espacio según sus masas y la distancia que los separa. El gran reto del viaje espacial es que la Tierra, la Luna y la nave se mueven al mismo tiempo, un problema físico hipercomplejo conocido formalmente como el problema de los tres cuerpos que no se puede resolver con una simple operación de lápiz y papel.

@csilverman I was the Product Manager for the eMate in education in Australia. The colour was officially Translucent Dark Green and it was one of the first translucent designs by Jony Ive. I had a purchase order for 35,000 of them from New South Wales Department of Eduction when Steve Jobs cancelled the project. It was the first time I actually had a phone call from Steve when he told me he didn’t “give a f***” about the order as #newton was dead.

Since I'm in a #Newton frame of mind right now, I thought I'd share this eerily forward-looking Newton ad from Sonny Hung's Smithsonian-level collection of Apple stuff.
"Newton will help you get organized.
Newton can help you make phone calls.
Newton can help manage your schedule.Newton can help you plan your day.
Newton learns about you to help you more.Newton is here today.
Newton will be everywhere tomorrow."And it sort of is. In spirit, anyway.

#KnowledgeBit: The #Newton's #Cradle is a device that demonstrates the conservation of momentum and the conservation of energy with swinging spheres.
The device is named after 17th-century English scientist Sir Isaac Newton and designed by French scientist Edme Mariotte. It is also known as Newton's pendulum, Newton's balls, Newton's rocker or executive ball clicker.

Oh, and as far as my favourites go, it's right up there with "And if I have not seen as far as others, it is because I have stood in the footprints of giants" 😆

What goes around comes around in science. 🔄⚖️
In physics, the idea that "what goes around comes around" isn't just a moral lesson about karma. It is a fundamental law of the universe.
Every single action you take triggers an equal and opposite reaction. If you push against a solid wall, the wall pushes back against you with the exact same amount of force. It is the universe's way of keeping a perfect balance. No energy is ever lost; it just transforms and cycles back into the system.
The exact same thing happens in nature’s great cycles. The water that evaporates from the ocean eventually rains back down to the earth, and the carbon exhaled by living creatures is pulled right back into the trees to create fresh oxygen. The earth is a closed loop where everything you give out, whether it is kinetic energy, physical matter, or heat, eventually makes its way back around. The universe keeps receipts, and the laws of physics ensure that everything balances out in the end.

From what I understand the Newton keyboard connects to the newton though a serial port similar to the one on vintage Macs. Is there a way (a driver) to use it as a keyboard on a Mac when plugging it to the Mac’s serial port (System 7)? #retroApple #newton

Hype for the Future 218P: Roselawn, Indiana
Overview The Roselawn community within the State of Indiana is a notable community associated with Newton and Jasper Counties in the State of Indiana and is located near the State Road 10 exit of Interstate 65 and east of the State Road 55 corridor. While much of the community is largely residential, notable resorts such as Sun Aura are notable as nudist resorts located within the general vicinity and are naturally age-restricted and privacy-gated as a result.https://novatopflex.wordpress.com/2026/06/06/hype-for-the-future-218p-roselawn-indiana/

At #NIST in #Maryland, physicist Stephan Schlamminger spent a decade trying – even resorting to a sealed-envelope #experiment to avoid subconscious bias. His team’s result slightly disagrees with the accepted value, keeping the #mystery alive.
