He argued that the fall of heavy objects towards the earth is a natural motion since it is just returning to its natural places.
Aristotle
After conducting a free fall experiment at the Tower of Pisa, he found out that heavy and light objects when dropped simultaneously strike the ground at the same time.
Galileo
He was an English scientist who revolutionized our Idea of gravitation.
