Annus Mirablills
Einstein published his fabled "Annus Mirablills" in which he published four ground breaking papers on topics that included special relativity. -
General Relativity Published
Einstein revolutionized physics when he announced the Theory of General Relativity that explained gravitational attraction as the result of massive objects warping all near by space-time. -
General Relativity Prediction
Einstein used general relativity ti predict existence of gravitational waves, ripples, in space space-time when massive bodies interact. -
New Term To The Equation
In 1917 Einstein introduced a new term to his equation known as the cosmological constant. -
Arthur Eddington
in 1919 Arthur Eddington observed the sun mass being light during a eclipse that was the gravitational lensing effect assumed by Einstein. -
General Relativity Prediction confirmed
A solar eclipse confirmed a strange relativity prediction which was that a massive body can redirect the path of traveling starlight -
A Soultion To Einsteins Equation
Alexander Friedmann and Georges Lemaitre independently found a solution to Einstein's equation about the uniformly expanding universe. -
Vera Rubin
In 1970 Vera Rubin provided very convincing evidence that most galaxies contained dark matters, which was causing them to rotate faster. -
Steph Hawking
in 1974 Steph Hawking showed that theoretically that quantum effects can cause black holes evaporate. -
Russel Hulse and Joseph Taylor
In 1974 both men discovered a pair of neutron stars whose orbit seemed to slow up as if they were losing energy by omitting gravitational forces.
