The Ulam Spiral was first found and made by the mathematician Stanislaw Ulam in 1963. Ulam was doodling on a scratch of paper during a scientific meeting, writing down a grid of numbers starting with 1 in the center and spiraling the numbers out. He circled all the prime numbers, and found that these numbers tend to line up in diagonals.
