Animated Google Doodle on Newton's birthday

Google logo animated

It all happened when an apple fell on Issac Newton from the tree. The theory of Gravity evolved then.

04 Jan is Newton‘s birthday. As usual, Google is celebrating the day with a doodle.

Today’s doodle is not just a doodle but an animated doodle. This is the first animated Google doodle ever.

    Yeah.. this animated doodle is a funny thing.. the more interesting fact is, they made the apple to bounce once as soon as it hits the ground… more realistic, right :)

    Google is SO nerdy they not only did a tribute they did it using Java script which uses gravity algorithms to animate the velocity, drag, and impact cooefficients. Those Google guys are slick with the one-two punches.
