Ugh. And they REALLY needed the house points!
Sutton could have hit herself in the head as soon as she heard the girl say the correct name. Obviously it couldn't be Galileo... he had a beard... that was what made his picture so memorable...
Duh, Sutton!
Her face blushing slightly, she half-raised her hand again,
"Sorry, Professor. I think that Ravenclaw girl is right, isn't she? It's Newton! And a fact about him is... he discovered a lot of important things about physics..." Sutton's brain worked in hyper-speed as she tried to remember those silly Bill Nye science movies her parents would play when they were kids.
"Something about... objects in motion..." she trailed off, looking up at the professor with true terror in her eyes for first getting the answer wrong and then for not being able to stop talking...
"Ooh! No... it's... objects in motion stay in motion unless acted upon by an outside force!"
And Sutton was pretty sure she was done answering questions for the rest of her life ever...
