Realms of Time and Space

The theory of relativity has been called the greatest triumph ever achieved by the disciplined imagination. When it was first proposed, in 1905, it shattered the traditional concepts of space-time, energy, and matter. Twelve years later its extended version challenged Newton's theory of gravity, replacing it with the concept of curved space. Its mathematical expressions disclosed some the nature's most intimate secrets. One of its equations became the backbone of the atomic age.

Physicists have a special respect for relativity because, unlike other theories that fade away with time, relativity has become more relevant today than in its early years. Black holes, expanding universe, the big-bang theory, all borrow heavily from relativity.

Relativity's chief architect was Albert Einstein, a brilliant scientist, a concerned citizen, and a warm human being. He was good for nothing student who detested regimented wrote learning experiences of his youth. He


Relativity is a property that is associated to all the physical quantities of the universe. Let us take an example. When we say that the car is moving; how we reach to such a conclusion? Actually we compare the position of the car with its surroundings. We observe that the road and trees are at rest, and only the car is constantly changing its position with respect to its surroundings. If nothing exists in the surroundings of the car, we can never determine its motion; so the word 'with respect to' must be associated with all the physical quantities for their complete description.

Now let us take another example suppose two cars are moving side by side with identical velocities. These cars are at rest with respect to one another but are in motion with respect to their surroundings. Therefore it. Can be concluded that there doesn't exist anything like 'Absolute rest' or 'Absolute motion'. Motion, speed or velocities are all relative. If we shoot a rocket into the space and that rock
