The Big Bang "created" the universe, or so it is said to. Einstein realized that his equations said that the universe must be either expanding or contracting, but it could not be standing still, because if it were then gravity would attract all the galaxies towards one another . This started his theory.

Q: What were your major accomplishments, the methodologies used and principals that were upheld?

Albert Einstein: Of course, My accomplishments were related to science. They were related to Time, Light, Gravity and Energy.

Light - I came up with the special theory of relativity, which stated that light is constant. I also proved that it is impossible to travel faster than light. No matter what, light always goes the same speed.

Time - This theory states that time is not constant as is light, the faster one goes, the slower time is, even though that person does not feel it as being different. This is an utmost important matter when dealing with space travel.

Gravity - I added to Newton’s theory of gravitational pull, stating that not only does the apple fall to the ground because of gravity, but earth’s orbit attracts asteroids because of the "dent" the earth makes in the layer of space. This giving us the power to our advantage as a "parking space" for satellites in our orbit to use for our technological advantages. It has also been used to get men to and from the moon.

Energy - Most everyone has heard of E=MC2, This is the famous equation that shows the relationship between Energy and Mass. It was once thought that Energy and mass were different, however my theory states that Energy and Mass are different forms of the same thing. Not only that Mass and Energy can be destroyed and changed into one another.

These were just some of my accomplishments in science.

Albert Einstein was born in Germany. He was also Jewish. This made life hard for him around the 1940's. He had to do something before he was captured by the Nazis. So Albert escaped to America. His knowledge spread across the US once he arrived. Ha is known as the smartest man alive.
