Archimedes (c. 287 BC- c. 212 BC) was an Ancient Greek inventor, astronomer, physicist, engineer, and mathematician. The logo shows Archimedes balancing his own name. Appropriate, since he came up with the concept of the center of gravity...along with the Archimedes Principle, which states, "Any floating object displaces it's own weight in fluid." Legend has it, he came up with the idea while taking a bath, and was so excited that he ran around the streets naked, cheering "Eureka! Eureka!" Does that mean he's also one of the earliest streakers?





Thomas Edison

Thomas Alva Edison (11 February 1847 - 18 October 1931) was an inventor and a businessman. He's credited for the creation of the motion picture camera, phonograph, and the electric light bulb. Before him, whenever you had an idea only a candle would light up above your head.

Marie Curie Marie Curie (7 November 1867 - 4 July 1934) was a French (Polish-born) physicist and chemist. She pioneered research on radioactivity, and was the first woman to win a Nobel Prize. Not only that, she's the only person ever to win it in two different categories! And like the Imagine Dragons song, her research notes to this day are still radioactive, radioactive.





Galileo Galilei Galileo (15 February 1564 - 8 January 1642) was a true Renaissance man. Physics, math, astronomy, philosophy...he did it all. He's famous for improving the telescope, and for his astronomical observations. This includes the phases of Venus, discovery of the Galilean moons of Jupiter (named after him, of course), and analyzing sunspots. Magnifico! Wilhelm Röntgen

German physicist Wilhelm Röntgen (27 March 1845 - 10 February 1923) was the discoverer of X-Rays and the namesake for the element roentgenium. He also had an epic beard, which when detected under an X-Ray, is still epic Barbara McClintock Barbara McClintock (16 June 1902 - 2 September 1992) was an American scientist and a leading cytogeneticist. She focused on chromosomes and the genetic structure of maize. No puns about her please, that would be way too corny.

Nicolaus Copernicus

He came up with the heliocentric model, stating that the Earth--and all the other planets-- revolve around the Sun. Before that, people believed in the geocentric model, where everything revolve around the Earth. Though today some people, not going to say who, believe in the Kanyecentric model.

Ada Lovelace Ada Lovelace (10 December 1815 - 27 November 1852) was the world's first computer programmer. She worked with Charles Babbage on the Analytical Engine, an early computer. Her notes include the very first algorithm. She did this while rocking some pretty fabulous outfits, because who says fashion isn't a science too?





Charles Darwin Geologist and naturalist Charles Darwin (12 February 1809 - 19 April 1882) is most famous for his theories on evolution, including the idea of natural selection and having common ancestors. He believed that mankind evolved from darlosers to darwinners.

He was an English physicist and mathematician, famous for his Laws of Motion, and for Gravity. The concept, not the Sandra Bullock movie.



Rosalind Franklin British-born Rosalind Franklin (25 July 1920 - 16 April 1958) is most famous for her work with DNA. Her X-ray diffraction images of DNA are what led to the discovery of DNA's double helix structure, which made the science world double over in awe. Pythagoras Not a ton is known about Pythagoras (c. 570 BC - c. 495 BC) except what's been said after his lifetime. We know he was a Greek philosopher, mathematician, and creator of the Pythagorean theorem (A^2 + B^2 = C^2). His legacy is aloof and mysterious. Which, like the boy sitting in the back of the class, makes him all the more attractive. Swoon! View Related T-Shirts here: Grace Hopper

Grace Hopper (9 December 1906- 1 January 1992) was an all-around B.A.M.F. She was a computer scientist and a rear admiral for the U.S. Navy. Her work lead to the development of one of the first modern programming languages, COBOL. She's also credited for coining the phrase "debugging." Basically, she was de-best.

Nikola Tesla Nikola Tesla (10 July 1856 - 7 January 1943) was an engineer and inventor. He's best known for his work in electricity, specifically with the alternating current. He's also pretty popular on the internet, especially for someone who's not a cat.
