In the summer of 1905, a young man was sitting at home after a day`s work.
While rocking his one-year-old baby, he thought something over. Suddenly, it came to him!
The equation “e=mc2”was born, an equation which would change our understanding of the universe but would help to create the nuclear bomb.
Albert Einstein was aware of recent developments, such as Marie Curie’s research into radioactivity, but he had been working on his own. His mould-breaking equation showed how a small piece of mass could produce an unbelievable amount of energy. Einstein then demonstrated in his theory of relativity that not even time, mass or length are constant – they vary according to our perspective of them. For example, if we could see people moving at the speed of light, they would appear much heavier and larger and would seem to move in slow motion.
