Albert Einstein (1879-1955)

Albert Einstein was born in a middle-class Jewish family in Germany. When he was 15, his family had to leave Germany and emigrate to Switzerland because of money difficulties.

In Switzerland Einstein continued his scientific education at the Polytechnic Academy in Zurich¹. After graduation he got a job in a patent office. He used his spare time for intensive study of philosophy, science and mathematics.

In 1914 he returned to Germany and worked as a professor of Berlin University. In 1933, as a sign of protest against fascism, Einstein left Germany and moved to the United States. In 1934 the Nazi government of Germany deprived him of his German citizenship and confiscated his property.

Albert Einstein found his new motherland in the United States of America. Albert Einstein was a rare scientist who became a hero of science during his lifetime.

Einstein's discoveries in physics go back to 1905 when he formulated the Special Theory of Relativity². The basic principle of relativity is: any motion is relative.

Einstein's second hypothesis was that the velocity of light is independent of the motion of its source. The speed of light - 300,000 km per second - is always the same anywhere in the universe, regardless of³ place, time or place, time or direction. For instance, in a moving train light travels at exactly the same speed as it does outside the train. No force can make it go faster or slower.

In the General Theory of Relativity⁴, published in 1915, Einstein studied the force that guides the movements of the stars, comets, meteors and galaxies. He proved that the space around a planet or another celestial body is a gravitational field, similar to the magnetic field around a magnet

Einstein's Photoelectric Law explaining the photoelectric effect, paved the way for the coming of television. For this discovery Einstein was awarded the Nobel Prize in physics in 1922, in his later years, Einstein worked on the Unified Field Theory⁵.

Einstein's contributions to science have been innumerable. But primarily, his fame rests upon the Theory of Relativity.
