Discover the genius history almost forgot.
This video explores the extraordinary life of John Michell—an 18th-century philosopher, clergyman, and one of science’s greatest unsung heroes. Michell’s pioneering work spanned geology, magnetism, and astronomy. He predicted the existence of black holes, explained tidal waves, and even designed experiments to measure the mass of the Earth.
Modern science writers marvel at how “a few specifics of Michell’s work really do sound like they are ripped from the pages of a twentieth-century astronomy textbook.”
Associated with some of the era’s brightest minds—Henry Cavendish, William Herschel, Joseph Priestley, Jan Ingenhousz, Benjamin Franklin, Rugier Josip Boscovic, and Charles-Augustin de Coulomb—Michell’s story is a fascinating journey through discovery and innovation.
Step into the world of a visionary who was centuries ahead of his time.
