Intotdeauna l-am considerat pe Sir Newton a fi un tip foarte hot. Nu credeti? Bun.
Prin secolul XVII, un arhitect iluminat, pe numele sau oficial Étienne-Louis Boullée, pentru prieteni Steve, a desenat un proiect de cenotaf denumit, evident,
Projet de cénotaphe à Newton.
Cateva imagini reprezentand acest proiect, niciodata realizat in dimensiunea noastra, puteti vedea mai jos:
Section drawing showing how daylight was to penetrate the shell to simulate a moonlit starry night sky. Newton’s sarcophagus was to be centered under the dome.
Cenotaful lui Steve
would have taken the form of a sphere 150 m high embedded in a circular base topped with cypress trees. Though the structure was never built, its design was engraved and circulated widely in professional circles.
