A number of scientists conducted precise measurements of the binary system for a year and concluded that time-period had reduced by eight millionth of a second in one year which was exactly in accordance with the prediction of the General Relativity Theory. This was the toughest test yet of Einstein's epoch changing theory.

Review of Einstein's Theories of Relativity

The process of obtaining Newton's Universal gravitation law from the general relativity theory shows peculiarities that are different from the case discussed above.

Dos dogmas del realismo estructural. Confirmacion de una muerte filosofica anunciada

Shortly after Einstein published his general relativity theory, the Dutch physicist, Willem de Sitter, solved the general relativity equations without Einstein's cosmological constant to describe what appeared to be a static unchanging universe.

Cosmology comes off age

These insights include: the two unique photon structures which are dark energy and dark matter; how construction of a double- quark unit between elements is the universal fusion mechanism splicing together lighter elements into heavier ones; how General Relativity Theory and Quantum Mechanics are reconciled; and how each of the forces (strong, weak, electromagnetic) is a minute fractional unit of the gravity force; among other ideas.

Previous theories addressing time travel are well grounded in Einstein's General Relativity theory. Renowned physicist Stephen Hawking has called time travel "an important subject for research," but has also proposed some of the strongest challenges to the concept.

Technion Physicist: Time Travel is Theoretically Possible

The opening of the full archive of Einstein's papers in 2006 has enabled Isaacson to paint a new, all-encompassing portrait of the man whose general relativity theory was described by the physics giant Max Born as 'The greatest feat of human thinking about nature, the most amazing combination of philosophical penetration, physical intuition and mathematical skill."

Images of known stars confirmed Einstein's general relativity theory: the Sun's gravity acts like a lens and deflects light from distant stars, making them appear in new locations.

Einstein--the reluctant statesman: for a man who said politics has no place in scientific discovery, Albert Einstein's fate was deeply entangled in at least two political behemoths of his time, the rise of Nazi Germany and the advent of nuclear weapons. But, in his words, people had only to "look deep, deep into nature to understand everything better."

Newton saw space as uniform, but according to General Relativity theory, light is bent as it travels past a massive body.
