Google Search featured Leon Foucault

Google Search had featured Leon Foucault on its page yesterday for his 194th birthday. Foucault was a French physicist best known for his demonstration of the Foucault pendulum, a device demonstrating the effect of the Earth's rotation. He also made an early measurement of the speed of light, discovered eddy currents and is credited with naming the gyroscope (Source: Wikipedia).

Here's a snapshot of the Doodle yesterday.
