Leonardo da Vinci was born on 15 April 1452 in Vinci, which is a small town near Florence, Italy. He was scientist, mathematician, anatomist, architect and writer but he was most famous as a painter. He was curious about everything in nature. He didn't go to university to study it, he studied by looking a things. He drew everything into his notebooks and made notes. There are 13, 000 pages of notes and drawings and many of them are scientific studies. He was always thinking about new inventions. Some of the ideas that he thought of were a helicopter, a tank, a parachute, a calculator or a robot.
