Bill Gates the second richest man in the planet purchased a notebook called the Codex Leicester which was written by Leonardo da Vinci.
Allegedly, this notebook contained ideas and drawings from da Vinci like electricity, flying helicopters, airplanes and weapons that didn’t exist at the time. Additionally no other scientist understood any of these things during his time. Davinci was basically very knowledgeable compared to some of the best scientist of his time.
The notebook purchased by Bill Gates was purchased so that Microsoft can build a software called Pages 2.0 where individuals can go online and browse these historical documents. Bill Gates mentioned he is very lucky to own these documents as da Vinci had all these idea and notes of something that he wanted to put together but never could.
