Isaac newton published three books and invented the Newtonian reflecting telescope, a significant improvement on previous reflecting telescopes.

Isaac Newton formulated the laws of universal gravitation and motion.

He established the modern study of optics.

He invented differential calculus at the same time as the German mathematician Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz (independently it is now believed but there was much controversy on this subject at the time.)

He came up with his theory on gravity while looking at an apple tree outside his window. He saw an apple fall from the tree (The idea that it fell on his head was invented be cartoonists and is untrue) and he was encouraged by the experience to investigate the cause behind it.
the little indents around a coins edge were designed by him to stop people from carving away at coins when they were made of valiable metal. a lot of his life was spent dealing with turning led to gold. not to helpful sorry but it is interesting.
