## Albert Einstein: The Genius of the 20th Century Albert Einstein, born in Ulm, Germany in 1879, was a theoretical physicist who revolutionized our understanding of space, time, gravity, and the universe itself. He is considered one of the most influential scientists of all time, and his work continues to shape our world today. Here's a glimpse into his life and achievements: Early Life and Education: • Struggled in school, but excelled in mathematics and physics. • Graduated from the Swiss Federal Polytechnic School in Zurich, specializing in physics. • Worked as a patent clerk while pursuing his scientific research. The Theory of Relativity: • In 1905, he published his groundbreaking paper on special relativity , which challenged Newtonian physics and introduced the concepts of time dilation and length contraction. • He further developed the theory in 1915 with general relativity , which described gravity as a curvature of spacetime caused by mass and energy. • These theories h...
