AWESOME SCIENCE GUY.

OK SO THE CIVIL WAR WAS REALLY COMPLICATED THE ENGLISH CIVIL WAR BY THE WAY

but a few people still did stuff

ONE OF THE PEOPLE THAT DID STUFF WAS NAMED ROBERT BOYLE. HIS NEW NAME IS ROB.

and rob was a scientist. a chemist, actually.

HE WAS THE FIRST MODERN CHEMIST.

and he was from ireland from a really really big family

HIS FAMILY WAS ACTUALLY SUPPORTIVE OF HIS ACADEMIC ENDEAVOURS WOW THIS IS GREAT AND KINDA REFRESHING

he also was into fencing and dancing and stuff

AND HE MOVED TO SWITZERLAND.

he was also a christian

IN GENEVA HE THOUGHT THE WORLD WAS GOING TO END BECAUSE A CHRISTIAN

seems about right

HE WAS LEFT A LARGE ESTATE BY HIS FATHER. HE COULD PRETTY MUCH DO WHATEVER HE WANTED BECAUSE HE HAD MONEY NOW.

he decided he’d join some cool secret society people

THESE COOL PEOPLE WERE CALLED THE INVISIBLE COLLEGE

this grew to become the royal society of london

THE ROYAL SOCIETY OF LONDON SOUNDS REALLY PRESTIGIOUS BECAUSE IT WAS.

now robbie had some nice connections because obvious reasons

HIS CONNECTIONS ALLOWED HIM TO BUILD A LABORATORY IN LONDON. WHICH IS WHERE HE MOVED.

he was pretty cool and figured stuff out

HE ALSO FIGURED OUT ELEMENTS WHICH WAS REALLY IMPORTANT

and a lot of other stuff that you can read about on google and wikipedia because you should know how to use the internet genius

COLOUR, CRYSTALS, REFRACTION, AND HYDROSTATICS OH MY.

i use british spelling yolo

HE ALSO AN ALCHEMIST THING SORT OF****** (hey guys asterisks means there’s a note at the end on this kthnx)

alchemy is cool don’t hate

ALCHEMY WAS KIND OF ILLEGAL BUT HE STILL DID IT ANYWAY.

nice job robbie

ALSO IF YOU DON’T KNOW WHAT ALCHEMY IS GOOGLE IT BECAUSE I’M TOO LAZY TO EXPLAIN IT

he also played with air stuffs

AND HE LEARNED THAT A MOUSE WOULD FAINT FROM LACK OF OXYGEN

absolute genius

HE EVEN HAS A LAW NAMED AFTER HIM WHICH I CAN’T EVEN WIKIPEDIA HELP ME

“Boyle's law (sometimes referred to as the Boyle–Mariotte law) states that the absolute pressure and volume of a given mass of confined gas are inversely proportional, if the temperature remains unchanged within a closed system.[1][2] Thus, it states that the product of pressure and volume is a constant for a given mass of confined gas as long as the temperature is constant. “

THAT’S PRETTY COOL. IT EVEN HAS A NICE LITTLE GRAPHIC GIFY



note totally stolen for wikipedia /because i’m a cheater./

ROBBIE ALSO USED A LARGE CHUNK OF HIS FORTUNE TO HAVE THE BIBLE TRANSLATED INTO LIKE 5 DIFFERENT LANGUAGES.

actually it was exactly five that’s cool

HE NEVER MARRIED, BUT HE DID LIVE WITH HIS SISTER.

in his last years he was writing lectures

THESE LECTURES FROM THE LAST PART OF HIS LIFE WERE CALLED THE “BOYLE LECTURES”

hey we got somethin in common we’re great at naming things yep

WOW THAT WAS REALLY SHORT.

basically

HE WAS REALLY AWESOME.

THE END.

Note:

Hey guys! Did you know you can be an alchemist AND A CHRISTIAN WOW THAT’S CRAZY

because robbie here was not relying on mysticism like most alchemists

he was a scientist who just so happened to be into alchemy

And God.

he just broke like 5 stereotypes at once there.

mysticism =/= science

science = good

mysticism = bad scary no

alchemy + science = ok

alchemy + mysticism = not ok

thank you everyone

if unsure, consult an alchemist
