German-born theoretical physicist Albert Einstein (1879–1955) was one of history's most powerful scientists.
Notable Milestones
Theory of Relativity: His two theories—special relativity (1905) and general relativity (1915)—transformed our perception of space, time, gravity, and the universe. His well-known equation, E=mc², proves the interchangeability of mass and energy.
For his photoelectric effect research that helped to create quantum theory, he received the 1921 Nobel Prize in Physics.
Escaping the Nazis in 1933, Einstein moved to the United States a pacifist. Modern physics still builds fundamentally on his research and concepts.
