			Even with all of his contributions to Science, Hooke was often overlooked at the time. This is due to the vast amount of ideas he came up with and because of his fights with other scientists. For example when he showed to the public his watch which used springs to keep extremely accurate time another scientist was also claiming that he came up with this idea. After he died credit was given to Hooke when scholars saw his handwritten notes of a watch years before the other scientist. He also had a major rivalry with Sir Isaac Newton. Newton is credited with discovering gravitation, but Hooke said not so fast. Many years earlier he described that in fact the Sun and Earth were attracted to one another and that as they got closer this attraction increased. Newton proved this idea with advanced Mathematics which Hooke was not capable of doing. One of Newton's most famous quotes is "If I have seen further it is by standing on the shoulder's of giants," and though he never said it he was referring to Hooke.

	Robert Hooke used the best tools available while he was doing research. During this time Hooke was using a simple compound microscope. Under it he looked at a vast array of items such as insects, snow, razors, cork, etc. He would then draw what he saw and put it in his book "Micrographia." He could see in vivid detail the hairs on the insects and when looking at the cork he noticed that it had sections he called "cells." The microscope didn't change for over 200 years which kept his book relevant. Also in his book were his ideas about Philosophy, the Universe, and the origin of fossils. This book was influential in the everyday adoption of the microscope.		Robert Hooke used the best tools available while he was doing research.

He described light as a wave which was eventually incorporated into particle and quantum physics. Other than these theoretical contributions he also created a pocket watch which used a spring balance, the first of its kind. This book was influential in the everyday adoption of the microscope.
