During Renaissance, people received opportunity for freedom of expression by which in human mind a new perspective took birth to have the curiosity to know the mysteries of nature. In the 16th century, new scientific principles were established. 

These are as follows :

  • Poland’s scientist Copernicus made the heliocentric principle of solar system by which it was proved that all heavenly bodies revolve around the sun. 
  • German astronomer Johan Kepler verified Copernicus’ principles on the basis of mathematical proofs. 
  • British scientist and mathematician, Issac Newton, established the principles of gravity. 
  • French mathematician and philosopher, Descartes, applied trignometry in Geometry. 
  • Italian scientist Galeleo invented the principle of Pendulum, air measuring instrument and telescope. 

Above mentioned inventions proved that science is not based on belief but overview and utilise practicality. By the inventions of scientists there were innovations in different fields and this brought the idea that world runs on self facilitated principles and not divine power.
