Albert Einstein
Albert Einstein is considered the most prestigious scientist of the 20th-century. Among his talent, he was a musician who likes to play the violin; a very shy boy who loves to understand and apply the knowledge that he had when it is was related to science and mathematics. Later in time, his interest in the understanding of nature phenomena, he developed without any doubt the most important and complicated theory which years later revolutionizes the world in every aspect of the word.
As a scientist, he developed and worked in a lot of research that led to the development of the Theory of Relativity in 1905. Ten years later, the worlds of physics change drastically to the point were every law was revised and rewrote it in two ways: the classical way, and the relativistic way. Also he was interested in working on several situations like: Characteristics of Radiation; determination of the size of the atom, disoriented movement of particles and electrodynamics of bodies in movement. With these other works, he develops important theories and laws about these behaviors. Meanwhile, he wrote to a friend, "The relativity principle in connection with the Maxwell equations demands that the mass is a direct measure for the energy contained in bodies; light transfers mass." From this, the equation that almost every people know or saw, E = mc^2, shows how mathematically, the energy and the mass are related. With this, the world had a better view of how incredible was the mind and knowledge of this man...
