So based on their contributions to society, who are your top 5 scientists of all time? Mine would be, in no particular order: - Louis Pasteur - Albert Einstein - Thomas Edison - Aristotle But number one would have to be... Isaac Newton - hands down THE greatest scientist of all time IMO. I can't imagine what the world would be like without physics or even the most basic fundamentals of calculus

[b][size=14]TESLA > EDISON[/size][/b] :mad:

TESLA > EDISON

[b][size=14]ARCHIMEDES > ARISTOTLE[/size][/b] PD: Leibniz FTW!

ARCHIMEDES > ARISTOTLE

PD: Leibniz FTW!

I only need ONE. [size=14][b]John Vincent Atanasoff[/b][/size] He decided he wanted to make a machine that functions like the human brain. Guess what, you're looking at it... [size=9]FYI: If you don't know what you're looking at, it's your computer! :P[/size]

In no particular order: Galileo Newton Einstein Hawking Bohr These 5 scientists have advanced physics and astronomy greatly, and I can't imagine where we would be without them.

Nikola Fucking Tesla .. nuff said Max Planck, Awesome Guy, Awesome Name, bow to his quantum glory Einstein, unwilling grandfather of the nuclear weapon, all around awesome. Werner Heisenberg, i can say this with no uncertainty ... (I'm so funny) Not sure about number 5, but Edison was a bastard, so i'll place him last

This.

Yeah, I'd replace Bohr with Da Vinci or Planck. I put him in there because I couldn't think of anyone else.
