- 0xfaded 10y agoNewton was the first to experiment with light reflectance of glass of various thicknesses. He found the relationship but had no idea how a light corpuscule could know the thickness of the glass when it decided to reflect or not. Newton published his corpuscular theory of light but I certainly don't think he would have claimed to know what was going on.
