Einstein’s Journey to the Cosmos: Part 2: Contemplating Black Holes
- Synopsis
- How Einstein’s 20th century theories are shaping 21st century science. Theoretical physicist Albert Einstein is universally considered one of the greatest thinkers of modern times, a man whose name is synonymous with genius itself. Yet despite the consensus, few really understand the ideas and applications of his theory of relativity and other important works. Perhaps fewer still realise how important his research is to astrophysicists today, as they search the skies to study black holes, seek out new worlds and even investigate travel through time. Part two of the series looks at black holes are and what kind of research is being done today but it also delves into how Einstein’s theories led to their theoretical discovery.
