That list is a good start but I imagine people will add scientist that appealed to them personally.
For me:
- Democritus - First to conceptualize the Atom
- Isaac Newton - Changed mathematics with Calculus
- Nikola Tesla - Changed electric engineering with AC & Tesla Coil
- Ada Lovelace - First programmer and co-creator of the intricate machine (the TI-83 lol)
The person that takes up a lot of space in my mind currently is Hal Finney:
- Everyone knows the list, if not read here.
- What separates him from the rest is how much time he spent fostering communities across multiple technology fields. I am in awe of how much he cared.
