Georges-Louis Lesage (1724 - 1803) was a Swiss physicist.He was born in Geneva to French parents, his mother a descendant of Théodore Agrippa d'Aubigné. He studied medicine in Paris and practiced there for several years before returning to Switzerland to devote his life to mathematics and, in particular, a search for the mechanisms of gravity.
He proposed a kinetic theory of gravity and, in 1774, realised an early electric telegraph. The telegraph had a separate wire for each of the 26 letters of the alphabet and its range was only between two rooms of his home.
He was a close associate of Charles Bonnet.
