Who would have thought a “Plague” could give you the opportunity for Great Discoveries?!

Issac Newton did!

In 1665, “social distancing” orders emptied campuses throughout England, as the bubonic plague raged, killing 100,000 people (roughly one-quarter of London’s population), in just 18 months.
(Sound Familiar?😢)
A 24-year-old student from Trinity College, Cambridge was among those forced to leave campus and return indefinitely to his childhood home.
His name was Isaac Newton and his time at home during the epidemic would be called his
“Year Of Wonders.”
Away from university life, and unbounded by curriculum constraints and professor’s whims, Newton dove into discovery. According to The Washington Post:
“Without his professors to guide him, Newton apparently thrived.”
At home, he built bookshelves and created a small office for himself, filling a blank notebook with his ideas and calculations. Absent the distractions of typical daily life, Newton’s creativity flourished. During this time away he discovered differential and integral calculus, formulated a theory of universal gravitation, and explored optics, experimenting with prisms and investigating light.

We’ve all heard about his discoveries in some way. And we All experience their effects Daily.
With that being said, What have you discovered over these last 18+ months.
And, what adventures are you ready to set course for now?!
