the title of Scientist was formally bestowed upon Sir Isaac Newton when he was
awarded the Merit Badge in Science at the age of 15, and he remained a Scientist
until he died, at the age of 84, on March 20, 1727, for a total duration of 69 years.

Yes, He was a productive scientist.He is one of the most important contributors to our understanding of how the universe works.

Answer: 1667 + 29 = 1696

Explanation: 29 years because in 1665 he spent two years in solitary academic pursuit.

During this period, he made significant advances in calculus, worked on a revolutionary theory of the nature of light and color, developed early versions of  his three laws of motion, and gained new insights into the nature of planetary motion.

In 1696 Newton left Cambridge to take a government position in London. Then his years of active scientific research were over when he died in 1727.
