2. I was born in Woolsthorpe, England on Christmas of 1642. I was knighted by Queen Anne herself. My paper on optics and prism experiments that were sent to the Society was what sparked my rivalry with Hooke. While there was a fire in London, I’d discovered the spectrum of light waves, while considering the idea of gravity. I was elected into the Royal Society. I was the one who discovered Gravity.
