More than one hundred years ago, Albert Einstein, armed with nothing more than paper, pencil and his intellect, radically changed our view of the universe. Einstein’s enormous influence is still being felt today with the exciting new discovery of gravitational waves. This talk will attempt to explain a few of his most significant discoveries, how they changed our understanding of the laws of nature and their relevance to today’s world. While the focus will be on Einstein’s science, the presentation will include some discussion of Einstein the person.
