The science of classical mechanics deals with the motion of objects through absolute space and time in the Newtonian sense. Although to the development of classical mechanics, the concepts of space and time would remain arguable for more than two and a half centuries following the publication of Sir Isaac Newton’s Philosophie naturalis principia mathematica in 1687. As Newton put it in the first page of the principia, “Absolute, true and mathematical time, of itself, and from its own nature, flows equably, without relation to anything external, and by another name is called duration. Absolute space, in its own nature, without relation to anything external, remains always similar and immovable.
