Ptolemy was a famous Greek mapmaker.

Aristotle came first, followed by Ptolemy, then Copernicus and Galileo. Other important players in the story after them were Tycho Brahe, Johannes Kepler and Isaac Newton.
The exact date of the Newton Meter is unknown, but it was in the mid 1600's. Sir Isaac Newton was the founder of the Newton Meter.

Ptolemy developed several mathematical models to describe the motions of the sun, the moon, the planets and the stars. The book that describes these models is called "The Almagest" or "Ptolemy's Almagest". The models all assume: 1. The earth is stationary. 2. All objects travel with uniform speed on a perfectly circular orbit. However, a model that placed the earth in the centre of the orbits of all other objects would not work because it does not account for various anomalies, including the varying length of seasons, the irregularity of eclipses of the moons and the retrograde motion of the planets. Ptolemy used two mathematical devices to deal with the anomalies: eccentricity (an offset from the centre of a circle) and epicycles - circular orbits whose centre (or eccentric) itself traveled in a uniform circular orbit. Much of the material in The Almagest was already known to Greek astronomers. Ptolemy's contribution was to consolidate all known results, make large improvements to the models, and to write it all down in a way that became a standard for the way to present the results of scientific enquiry. His book was the standard text book for astronomers until his models were ultimately improved by Copernicus, Kepler and Newton. Ptolemy also wrote a treatise on Astrology, based on his deep knowledge of the motions of the heavenly bodies. This work is called The Tetrabiblos.

In the scientific revolution, the traditional authority was the Catholic Church and the teachings of ancient scholars like Aristotle and Ptolemy. These authorities were often challenged by new thinkers like Copernicus, Galileo, and Newton who made groundbreaking discoveries that contradicted existing beliefs.

Isaac Newton and Hannah Newton were siblings. Hannah Newton was Isaac Newton's younger half-sister.
Wayne Newton is Juice Newton's sister.
Isaac Newton did not invent the newton metre, it was named after and in honour of him.
the newton (:

No, Ella Belle Newton was not reletaed to Issac Newton.
