Albert Einstein: 'Nuff Said
Einstein is the poster boy for intelligence the world over. His image on anything says intelligence. His equation E=mc² is a justly famous equation that tells us energy and mass are equivalent. He wrote ground breaking papers in physics — one of which won him the Nobel prize. His wiki is here: (click this link).
Einstein would conduct these “thought experiments” with people traveling at speeds of light toward each other or away, and he would reach correct conclusions from these thought experiments.
It took Einstein ten years to learn the math necessary to express an idea in his head. So, he had an idea so far advanced from himself that he needed ten years of advanced math to be able to write about it. That alone is amazing.
He postulated many things, one of which is gravitational lensing: Click this link. A few years ago, we confirmed that this lensing does happen, which means massive objects actually warp space making it act like glass does in optics.
The kinds of things Einstein has done are truly remarkable. His papers have been collected together: Click this link. If you want, you can try to fight your way through them.
Einstein is getting more proof. Here is a very current article on time dilation being different even for nearby objects (click this link).
