- Hendrik Lorentz - Lorentz (1853-1928) became known as the "Grand Old Man of Dutch Physics". He came up with the idea that the laws of nature must be invariant to a change of coordinate systems. The consequences of this were that time and space variables needed to enter into equations on an equal footing.
