...Shadow, which is the Nature of the Rays of Light'. In the preceding query Newton examines hypotheses in which light is supposed to consist in 'Pression or Motion, propagated through a fluid Medium', but rejects them because he has no evidence of the bending or crookedness of light, and because Huyghens... | |
