The Theory of Relativity
Albert Einstein mathematically proved the Theory of Relativity. His breakthrough was the greatest one in theoretical physics in 200 years. In fact, at the time, Einstein was so far ahead of the technology of the time, that there was no way to scientifically test his theories. Only recently, have new scientific methods been developed to test them.
His theory revolutionizes how humans look at the universe. The theory of relativity can be broken down into two main concepts. The first is theory of special relativity which deals with extremely small things and how they interact with each other. The second is the theory of general relativity which deals with extremely larger things and how they interact with each other.One of the most famous examples of these ideas is the famous mathematical equation E=MC2 which built upon the work of Newton.
