In 287 BC, Archimedes was born and raised by an astronomer who taught him a lot about mathematics, astronomy, and engineering. One of his biggest contributions to math was understanding the pi symbol. Due to the fcat that he was good at geometry, he was able to make a small planetarium. This incorporated geometry because he had to find out the precise angles and measurements in order to make a close representation of the planet's orbit. Archimedes' math skills also made it possible for the screw pump to be invented. This was a very important invention because without it, many cultures would have trouble with irrigation systems, which could later effect their farming. Archimedes also contributed to physics by creating the Archimedes Principle. This basically stated that "the buoyant is equal to the weight of displaced water." Now what does Archimedes have to do with meteorology? Without his understanding of math, meteorologist would have trouble understanding the formation of convection clouds. Archimedes has left the legacy of being one of the greatest mathematicians, physicists, engineers, and astronomers. Lastly, he will be remembered for using the word "Eureka", which means "I have found it."
