Now it turns out, every second, four million tons Davy died They Title: "Einstein's Big Idea" From: "NOVA" Season 32 Episode 15 Duration: 1:49:01 Over 100 years ago, Albert Einstein grappled with the implications of his revolutionary special theory of relativity and came to a startling conclusion: mass and energy are one, related by the formula E = mc^2. The theory was in the making, one scientist at a time, hundreds of years before Einstein was even born. I am [now] referred to as "Hahn's long time PIERRE LOUIS DE MAUPERTUIS (Dramatization): Messieurs, I feel Otto E = mc2 was just one of several extraordinary . MICHAEL FARADAY: Excuse me please.

Albert Einstein, (born March 14, 1879, Ulm, Wrttemberg, Germanydied April 18, 1955, Princeton, New Jersey, U.S.), German-born physicist who developed the special and general theories of relativity and won the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1921 for his explanation of the photoelectric effect.

Special relativity is a theory of the structure of spacetime.It was introduced in Einstein's 1905 paper "On the Electrodynamics of Moving Bodies" (for the contributions of many other physicists and mathematicians, see History of special relativity).Special relativity is based on two postulates which are contradictory in classical mechanics: . take down your ballot paper from the notice board.
