Pierre-Simon, Marquis de Laplace (lahir 23 Maret 1749 – meninggal 5 Maret 1827 pada umur 77 tahun) adalah seorang ahli matematika dan astronom Prancis yang mengemukakan teori bahwa bumi jutaan tahun yang lalu terpisah dari matahari dan secara bertahap kulit luarnya mengering dan mengeras. Pada tahun 1773, di depan Akademi Prancis, dia membuktikan bahwa gerakan planet-planet adalah stabil. Penemuan Laplace lainnya adalah di bidang integral kalkulus, diferensial terbatas, persamaan diferensial, dan astronomi. Ia menemukan Mekanika selestial, Ekuasi Laplace, Operator Laplace dan Transformasi Laplace. Suatu ketika Napoleon Bonaparte bertanya kepada Laplace tentang peran tuhan yang tidak disinggung dalam karyanya, Laplace menjawab dengan tegas bahwa peran Tuhan tidak diperlukan dalam keteraturan alam raya ini.
