When Newton was born, Britain still adopted the old calendar judged by the Roman emperor Caesar; It was not until 1725 that Britain adopted the new calendar formulated by Pope Gregory XIII, which is the Gregorian calendar that is used all over the world today.

The old calendar (julian calendar) is later than the new calendar (Gregorian calendar) 12 days. Newton's birthday is julian calendar1642 65438+February 25th, and the current Gregorian calendar1643 65438+1October 4th, with a difference of 12 days.

1727 On March 20th, Newton died of bladder stones at the age of 84. He never married. Britain buried Newton in Westminster Abbey with a grand state funeral ceremony.

In Westminster Abbey in London, England, a tombstone is erected, and the inscription is written in Latin. The last sentence of the inscription reads: "Let mankind cheer, such a great human light once existed." This is the British government's tribute to the great scientist Newton.
