Einstein's a Genius
Did it ever occur to you that Einstein really did change the world? It may only be really important to scientists, but everyone should realize that he affected their lives. I mean, without him, science wouldn't be as far as it is. Don't get me wrong, all famous scientists changed something in their own little way, but Einstein even proved those people wrong.
Albert Einstein discovered the Theory of General Relativity. This theory is considered, by some, to be the Theory of Everything because it is so important to space and time. In the article, "Einstein's Theory of General Relativity", it says that the Theory of General Relativity is " that the laws of physics are the same for all non-accelerating observers, and that the speed of light in a vacuum was independent of the motion of all observers."
In the same article that was mentioned above, it states that " Sir Isaac Newton quantified the gravity between two objects when he formulated his three laws of motion. Yet Newton's laws assume that gravity is an innate force of an object that can act over a distance." Einstein added to Newton's predictions, and then some.
Also in the article, it says that Einstein "found that space and time were interwoven into a single continuum known as space-time. Events that occur at the same time for one observer could occur at different times for another." This is a very complicated concept and very hard to grasp. Having space and time interwoven into one is very out there and really affects how our world works. The Theory of General Relativity really moved along our understanding of the world around us and helped put things in perspective.
Earth is one of the simplest, yet complex objects in our universe. We understand enough to be able to survive, but just don't get all of the little details. Einstein's theory really brought new ideas to our attention. And for that, he is considered a genius.
