It is impossible, in a finite number of operations to produce a temperature of absolute zero. The Universe will attain absolute zero when all energy and all matter is randomly distributed across space. The current temperature of empty space in the Universe is about 2.7 degrees Kelvin. All thermodynamic properties of matter can be understood in terms of the motion of atoms and molecules. The calculus is a branch of mathematics that provides a method for describing gradual change.
Most modern sciences use calculus.
Censorship broke down. Every area of thought, including religious expression and scientific inquiry, blossomed. Newton was born in an age when he could speak his mind. He was not forced to disguise his findings and recant like Galileo. Nor was he required to flee his country and go into exile as was Descartes.
