Albert Einstein

I chose Albert Einstein because he seemed like a interesting scientist to research, like all of his theories, equations and inventions. I learnt lots about Albert like what kind of person he was, when he was born, or when he died and lots of facts down below.

Who was Albert Einstein?
Albert Einstein was a theoretical physicist. He was born on March 14, 1879 in Ulm, Germany. he died on April 18, 1955 in New Jersey. His death was caused by abdominal aortic aneurysm, which is a e swelling of the aortic ( its the largest artery in the body). Albert went to the university of Zurich in 1896-1900. Albert was known for his theory of relativity. His equation E= mc squared shows that energy and mass are interchangeable. The relativity theory shows how space & time are linked for objects that are moving at the same speed in a straight line, this formed the basis of his general relativity. This theory was published on November 25, 1915.
