The simple casket containing the corpse, post-autopsy, only stayed at the funeral home for an hour or so. Morse made his way there, and soon saw two men loading a casket into a hearse. Hoping to scope out a spot near the grave, he quickly drove to the Princeton Cemetery. I see a group of guys digging a grave, offer them a bottle, ask them if they know anything. In Trenton! This was big news! Nothing more is left of "his office".
On the official website of the Institutes for Advanced Study the following hint can be found: "Is it possible to visit Albert Einstein's office at the Institute? Professor Einstein's Institute office has been occupied, since his death in , by other members of the Institute's Faculty. The offices of all Faculty and Members are private. Whole books might be filled with answering this question.
The special theory of relativity deals with questions of systems of reference moving with constant speed against each other. It lead to a revision of the terms space and time and is based on the principle of the constancy of the speed of light and on the principle of relativity, which postulates the impossibility of the determination of an absolute movement.
However, the general theory of relativity deals with systems of reference relatively accelerated against each other, as well as the impact of gravity on space and time. Was it possible to confirm the effects predicted by the general theory of relativity with experiments?
To the classical confirmed tests of the general theory of relativity belong among others the predicaments of the perihelion motion of Mercury, the gravitation red shift as well as of the deviation of light in the gravitational field of the sun.
The gravity waves predicted by Einstein and his theory however, could only be indirectly proven until today. How many people understand the theory of relativity? Legend has it that the English astronomer Arthur Stanley Eddington is said to have answered on the question, whether three people could understand the theory of relativity: "And who is going to be the third?
The theories of relativity are already dealt with in the upper classes of grammar school and are basic components of every physics study. It says that any energy, which is supplied to a body, also increases its mass and each energy, which is deduced from the body, reduces its mass.
The conversion from mass into energy was sadly confirmed at the latest in August by the throwing two atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Her personal and intellectual relationship with the young Einstein however, has played an important role in his development. But she could not help him with the creative part of the theory of relativity. In the 20ies there is said to have been a film by Einstein concerning the theory of relativity.
What do you know about this film? Hanns-Walter Kornblum had the idea to this film, which almost entirely consisted of animated pictures. Today only the English version of the film from the year is preserved.
However, this is a version which is very shortened of the German original version. Was Albert Einstein awarded the Nobel Price? Albert Einstein was awarded the Nobel Price for physics in The price was given to him "for his merits concerning theoretical physics, especially for his discovery of the law of photoelectric effect".
It has to be mentioned that Einstein was not awarded the Nobel Price for the theory of relativity. What had Einstein to do with the construction of the atomic bomb? Frightened that Germany worked on the development of the atomic bomb, Albert Einstein signed a letter to the American president Franklin D.
Roosevelt on August 2, to point out the possibility of an atomic danger to him. In the letter indicated to the president that there was a military threat with atomic energy and gave him the tip, that also the US should increase its nuclear research.
This was the only part Einstein played in connection with the atomic bomb! In a letter to his long-time friend Max von Laue Einstein wrote in March " The thing with the atomic bomb and Roosevelt was restricted to the fact that I have signed a letter by Szilards facing the danger that Hitler could be in possession of the atomic bomb first. Which contemporary technical modern comforts can be traced back to Albert Einstein?
Are there still descendants of Albert Einstein today ? If yes, where do they live? Yes, there are still descendants. However, due to reasons of personality protection their addresses are not published.

He was After getting a call that April morning from a LIFE editor telling him Einstein had died, Morse grabbed his cameras and drove the 90 miles from his house in northern New Jersey to Princeton.
But it was chaos — journalists, photographers, onlookers. On the way, I stopped and bought a case of scotch. I knew people might be reluctant to talk, but most people are happy to accept a bottle of booze, instead of money, in exchange for their help.
So I get to the building, find the superintendent, give him a fifth of scotch and like that , he opens up the office.
