Relativity Centennial

Filed under: — Joe @ 8:15 pm

Since this year is the centennial of Einstein’s “On the Electrodynamics of Moving Bodies” (catchy title for one of the big world-shaking publications of all time!) in which special relativity was first published in its finished form, it seemed like a good time to link to some great audio. The first is Einstein himself explaining the theory. And the other is a very fun page (from Nova’s “Einstein’s Big Idea“) of scientists explaining the theory and its importance. Some of the big science heroes of the day. It’s always a good time, but 2005 is especially a good time, to think like Einstein.
