when the Famous Astronomers were Forgotten


There was a Days when Sir Issac Newton was facing an Opposition From Flamsteed ...
Sir Issac Newton was Helped By his Friend whose name was Halley, he Financed for Newton..The publication of Newton's Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica was financed by Halley in 1687

So the Halley was the Man who Helped out the Newton

Like half the undergraduates of the time, Halley left Oxford without bothering to take a degree. He sailed to the island of St Helena in the Atlantic to observe the transit of Mercury across the sun in 1677.

who financed the Halley in his Research...On 16 February 1768, the Royal Society petitioned King George III to finance a scientific expedition to the Pacific to study and observe the 1769 transit of Venus across the sun to enable the measurement of the distance from the Earth to the Sun.


During the Same Time in India the 1600 to 1700
An immense mausoleum of white marble, built in Agra between 1631 and 1648 by order of the Mughal emperor Shah Jahan in memory of his favourite wife, the Taj Mahal is the jewel of Muslim art in India and one of the universally admired masterpieces of the world's heritage...In the war of succession which begins in 1707, two of Aurangzeb's sons and three of his grandsons are killed.



That was the Last Miracle in india After that India Didn't done Anything in which Indians would be Proud

                                          India was under the ruling of  Britishers

there was a time when Bhaskaracharya born in india

Bhāskara, was an Indian mathematician and astronomer. He was born in Bijapur in modern Karnataka. Bhāskara and his works represent a significant contribution to mathematical and astronomical knowledge in the 12th century
as per Wikipedia 
12th century
1121 – Al-Khazini: variation of gravitation and gravitational potential energy at a distance; the decrease of air density with altitude
Ibn Bajjah (Avempace): discovery of reaction (precursor to Newton's third law of motion)
Hibat Allah Abu'l-Barakat al-Baghdaadi (Nathanel): relationship between force and acceleration (a vague foreshadowing of a fundamental law of classical mechanics and a precursor to Newton's second law of motion)
Averroes: relationship between force, work and kinetic energy

the name of bhaskara is absent in wikipedia
so i request to wikipedia please put his name
