Hence arise innumerable worlds, and are resolved again into these elements. See also ancient philosophy, related to the possibility of extraterrestrial life

Zeno of Elea web here SITE MAP (5th century BC) Leucippus was the founder of atomism We know almost nothing about his life, and his book appears to have been incorporated in the collected works of Democritus . No writer subsequent to Theophrastos seems to have been able to distinguish his teaching from that of his more famous disciple. Indeed his very existence has been denied, though on wholly insufficient grounds. Aristotle gives a clear and intelligible account of the way Leucippus' theory arose. It originated from Parmenides ' denial of the void, from which the impossibility of multiplicity and motion had been deduced. Leucippus supposed himself to have discovered a theory which would avoid this consequence. He admitted that there could be no motion if there was no void, and he inferred that it was wrong to identify the void with the non-existent. Leucippus was the first philosopher to affirm, with a full consciousness of what he was doing, the existence of empty space. The Pythagorean void had been more or less identified with 'air', but the void of Leucippus was really a vacuum. Besides space there was body, and to this Leucippus ascribed all the characteristics of

Extractions: Executive summary: Father of Atomism Greek philosopher, born at Miletus (or Elea), founder of the Atomistic theory, contemporary of Zeno, Empedocles and Anaxagoras . His fame was so completely overshadowed by that of fellow Atomist Democritus , who subsequently developed the theory into a system, that his very existence was denied by Epicurus x.7), followed in modern times by E. Rohde. Epicurus, however, distinguishes Leucippus from Democritus, and Aristotle and Theophrastus expressly credit him with the invention of Atomism. There seems, therefore, no reason to doubt his existence, although nothing is known of his life, and even his birthplace is uncertain. Between Leucippus and Democritus there is an interval of at least forty years; accordingly, while the beginnings of Atomism are closely connected with the doctrines of the Eleatics, the system as developed by Democritus is conditioned by the sophistical views of his time, especially those of Protagoras. While Leucippus's notion of Being agreed generally with that of the Eleatics, he postulated its plurality (atoms) and motion, and the reality of not-Being (the void) in which his atoms moved.
