1905 THEORY OF RELATIVITY

In 1905, Albert Einstein determined that the laws of physics are


the same for all non-accelerating observers, and that the speed of
light in a vacuum was independent of the motion of all observers.
This was the theory of special relativity. It introduced a new
framework for all of physics and proposed new concepts of space
and time.
