Edmond Halley / 哈雷

Edmond Halley appears in 26.牛顿与伪币制造者：可能是斯内普的原型？ as the catalyst who pushed Isaac Newton / 牛顿 from private calculation toward publication. The episode has Halley ask what orbit would follow from an inverse-square attraction, then recognize the importance of Newton’s answer and protect Newton’s priority at the Royal Society.

Halley’s role supports Scientific Revolution Social Infrastructure: even Newton’s most famous theoretical system needed a questioner, courier, editor, advocate, and institution-facing sponsor before it became a public scientific event.
