Planck was born with academic powers! He went to University of Munich in 1867. When he was in Munich University he was taught physics by a man named Philipp von Jolly and Wilhelm Beetz. So he mostly studied physics! He was a theoretical physicist who originated quantum theory which won him a Nobel Peace Prize. Max Planck, when he was at his university, had studied the works of thermodynamics. This is how he came across his discovery. Unfortunately, Max’s theory was proven wrong. An Australian physicist named Paul Ehrenfest. None of this had a bearing on Planck’s blackbody work. Max Planck had won a Nobel Peace Prize. His discovery was noted and recognized but later proven wrong.
