Physics
The origins of Physics, the study of matter and its motion through space-time and related concepts, date back to ancient Greece. From the intuitions of Greek philosophers to nowadays cutting-edge research, the discipline has been continually progressing on a large number of fronts, including mechanics, heat, light and other radiation, sound, electricity, magnetism, and the structure of atoms.
