His theory?

One day, Newton was sitting under an apple tree, eating an apple and reading about the Universe. Suddenly, - Boink!- an apple hit him on the head. It fell from the apple tree above.

In a flash, he understood that the very same force that brought the apple crashing toward the ground also keeps the moon falling toward the Earth and the Earth falling toward the sun: gravity.
