By Devine Entertainment Corp

Like a comet blazing across the night sky, Isaac Newton's theories on celestial movement and gravity scorched the stuffy intellects at the Royal Academy in 1683. Newton and his young scribe, Humphrey, are caught up in the rollicking race to change how the universe is perceived. However, Humphrey finds that even the greatest of men must overcome personal hardship to achieve success. Newton has learned that knowledge is what enriches existence and civilization - a lesson that is heeded by his young assistant. Color. Not Rated. Total Time: 51:21.

    By Mitch Stokes / Thomas Nelson

    He built the first refracting telescope, authored the book that became the basis for classical mechanics, and wrote the three laws of motion-and that's just a fraction of Sir Isaac Newton's achievements. Despite the fact that he's considered by many to be the most influential scientist in history, he actually wrote more about his Christian faith than he did about natural science. This Christian Encounters biography illuminates Newton's beliefs and how they shaped his view of the world he so desired to understand.
