evidence of the existence of atoms
Einstein’s Special Theory of
Relativity (final 1905 paper)

up with E=MC
squared in this paper
-E=MC squared
means that energy is
equal to mass times
constant (speed of
light) squared

-General theory of relativity = if someone
could reach a speed close to that of light, they
could, essentially, travel through time
-demonstrated on the event horizon of a
