Middle kingdoms of India (or Classical India) refers to
the political entities in India from the 3rd century BCE to the 13th
century CE. This period begins after the decline of the Maurya Empire, and the corresponding rise of the Satavahana dynasty, beginning with Simuka, from 230 BCE. The "Middle" period lasts for some 1500 years, and ends in the 13th century with the rise of the Delhi Sultanate and the end of the Later Cholas (Rajendra Chola III died in 1279 CE). The period is known as the classical period of India,
during which India is estimated to have had the largest economy of the
world controlling between one third and one fourth of the world's
wealth.
John Dalton - The idea of an atom- the smallest component of matter that could not be divided further - was proposed around the year 400 BC. However, Aristotle did not like the idea. He claimed that all matter was composed of various proportions of elements like air, water, earth and fire. However, he had no experimental evidence to prove it. It was only when John Dalton (an English chemist, physicist and meteorologist), after experimenting with various gases, discovered that all matter is, in fact composed of extremely small particles called atoms, that the atomic model was first accepted worldwide.
One event from women, is Marie Curie. She and her husband discovered the elements of polonium and radium. She studied radiation. She used the newly discovered element (radium) to be a gamma ray source for X-ray machines. This allowed X-ray machines to be stronger and more accurate.
