Isaac Newton and falling Apple on Google today
Today Google has changed their logo and placed Apples on it. If you go to the Google homepage, you’ll notice the logo above along with an animated falling Apple. Google created this logo to celebrate the birth date of Sir Isaac Newton. Newton is famous for his three laws of motion, which I will list below.
- Newton’s First Law states that an object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion tends to stay in motion unless acted upon by an external force.
- Newton’s Second Law states that an applied force on an object equals the rate of change of its momentum with time.
- Newton’s Third Law states that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.
Google always has a reason they include things in their logo. Why is an logo with a falling Apple on the Google home page? Well, that’s because a falling apple from a tree inspired him to formulate his theory of gravitation.

the logo is amazing but look more clearly on all the apples.
All the apple has an image on it. Looks like a finger :-)
Clicking on I’m feeling lucky will get you another surprise!
Best logo yet!
My only quibble is that Newton lived and died under the Julian calendar, not the Gregorian one, so his birthdate was actually Dec 25, not Jan 4.
It was very important to him in his life’s work, so I think we should honor that.

Did Isaak Newton invent the apple ?
