Scientific paper

The publication of Isaac Newton's ``notions about motion'' 300 years ago
was a major moment in the history of science. In the period just before
1687 Newton's correspondence was much concerned with comets. In this
period two bright comets were seen. These comets appear to have been a
major stimulation to Newton's work on mechanics.
