2. Issac Newton
In a famous experiment over three hundred years ago, Issac Newton demonstrated that color is a property of light.
"I do not know what I may appear to the world; but to myself I seem to have been only like a boy playing on the seashore, and diverting myself now and then in finding a smoother pebble or prettier shell than ordinary, while the great ocean of truth lay all undiscovered before me."
– Isaac Newton
