Three hundred years ago, a curious fellow named Isaac Newton looked at the world — falling apples, rolling carts, spinning planets — and noticed something wonderful. Everything that moves obeys just three simple rules. Three! That's it. Learn these three and you can predict how almost anything in the universe will move. So let's meet them, one at a time.

Here's the First Law, and it's beautifully lazy. Things love to keep doing whatever they're already doing. Something sitting still wants to stay still. Something moving wants to keep moving, in a straight line, forever — unless something pushes or pulls it to stop. We call this stubbornness inertia. Objects are creatures of habit.
