Sir Isaac newton is credited with first describing what we now call Newton's first law of motion in his work "Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica" published in 1687. This law states that an object at rest will remain at rest, and an object in motion will remain in motion with a constant velocity unless acted upon by an external force.
