jan 1, 1633 - Descartes' Universal Model

Description:

French philosopher René Descartes (likely while in France) proposes an outline of the universe, theorizing it to be infinite, and infinitesimal, though wrongly proposed vacuums to be pools of fine matter swirling to create gravitational effects. Elements of this model would later inspire the Newtonian model.
