Felix AlbaJuezIf Relativity Theory kills our deepest convictions, why not start by finding out why we believed in them for millennia?
About This Quote
The theory of Relativity is a great example of the application of science to the humanities. The theory of Relativity was, at first, a theory that would be completely ignored by the academic community, but now it is accepted as fact across the world. Einstein’s Theory of Relativity explains how our universe works at its most basic level. It is about the nature of space and time.
The theory has lead to some truly ground breaking discoveries, but what are these discoveries? It has lead to us understanding our universe better than ever before. That is why it is important for people to understand that science can be used for good as well as bad.
