Compared to the more important findings of Newton Einstein 

Who do you think has a greater contribution to science and human life? Albert Einstein or Isaac Newton?

Albert Einstein may just be the inventor who ushered in the nuclear and solar energy, lasers, and even physical description of space and time. But according to a poll conducted in the UK, the findings of Sir Isaac Newton had a greater impact on science and mankind.

Newton, a British scientist of the 17th century, known by his theory of gravity and motion, beat Einstein in two polls conducted by an academy of science in London, the Royal Society.

More than 1,300 members of the public and 345 Royal Society scientists were asked separately about the scientists who make greater contributions to science, who gives more important statement about the science of his time, and which made a bigger positive contribution to humanity.

On the public poll, Newton excels in all aspects. In terms of who gives a greater contribution to humankind, Newton ahead of Einstein - scientist born in Germany - by 0.2 (Newton: 50.1 percent and Einstein: 49.9 percent).

Among scientists that the difference is even greater 60.9 percent to 39.1 percent for Newton and Einstein.

The poll results were announced in the debate "Einstein vs. Newton", in a public lecture at the Royal Society on Wednesday night.

"A lot of people say, comparing Newton and Einstein like comparing apples and oranges. But the most important thing is giving people a great appreciation for the work of these two physicists, and their impact to the whole world not only in the laboratory and the equation," said president of the Royal Society, Lord Peter May.

The scientists found that support Newton Newton has led the change from an era of superstition and dogma to the modern scientific method.

His greatest work, "Principia Mathematica", showed that gravity was a universal force that affects all objects in the universe. The principle rule out the belief that the laws of motion of different objects to objects on earth and in heaven.

Proponents of Einstein's theory of relativity states that the scientist Newton undermine confidence in space and time, and led to the theory of the formation of the universe, black holes, and a parallel universe. In addition, Einstein also prove mathematically the existence of the atom and the discovery that light is made of particles called photons, something that underlies the invention of nuclear bombs and solar power.
