Hmmm... What is your goal? You're basically asking us to share with you the entire galaxy in 10 words or less. Can you give more detail?

 

Btw... my first thoughts were Kepler, Copernicus, Maxwell, and Darwin.

im askin wat theories and laws should i read up on

 

I'm just going to throw out: the second law of thermodynamics and maybe game theory for economics and skinner's theory of language acquisition for psychology.

but i dnt know wat all of them are thats why i would liek

you guys to tell me the name of sum astronomy, physics,

space, related like the theory of relativity, or laws of thermodynamics

wat are the names of other laws and theories that are important to

the topics i named

There are too many theories and laws to list them all for you. Although I think your question is phrased a little poorly, I think I know what you're asking for. My recommendation is to look at the sub-forum titles under "physics" on the forum index page here at SFN. Those are the major threads in the fields you seem to be interested in. I would strongly recommend starting with classical mechanics since the rest is extremely hard to understand without a strong background in this.

Okay... Try this then:

 

Six Easy Pieces - Richard Feynman

 

Six Not-So-Easy Pieces - Richard Feynman

 

The Magic Furnace - Marcus Chown

 

Black Holes and Time Warps - Kip Thorne

 

Origin of Species - Charles Darwin

 

 

Just a couple off the top of my head, so don't stop there. Learning this stuff is more of an approach to life... a path... than it is a final destination. :)

Just take a physics course and learn everything that you can. If you are interested in astronomy or astrophysics, a strong background in Relativity, Cosmology, and Quantum Mechanics is a must.
