Making a tribute to Albert Einstein, an iconic gentlemen, a genius, an international well known Theoretical Physicist. Albert’s contributions towards developing theories in relativity and quantum mechanics are extraordinary, some named him the “Father of Modern Physics”.

Apparently, it was a compass of which he received from his father on his 5th birthday that initially trigged Albert’s passion for science. Then at the age of 6 years old, he developed another passion for learning and playing the violin. A perfect combination, by playing the violin, listening to music, it calmed his mind and further encouraged inspirations, curiosity, personal ideologies of science, maths and physics.
At 15 years old, Einstein left Germany and began studies at Federal Institute of Technology in Bern, Switzerland. Upon graduation, he found it difficult to get work as a physicists as his professors regarded him as a rebel, not being able to follow rules and or systems. Eventually, he obtained a full time position as a Clerk, Patent Office. It was an easy job giving him the opportunity to think and write his theories, scientific papers, analysis and thesis.
Albert’s strong believe in science assisted him to pass through extremely difficult times, personal and world crises. It has been recorded that he further developed habits, for instance arranging time and energy to play the violin, constantly improving his communication skills, taking time for daily walks so that may he may think and further analyse his theories. He constantly smoked pipes, slept around 9 to 10 hours per day, even decided to never wears socks due to one of his long toe tearing them.
Einstein’s theory of relativity, took around 15 years of mathematical errors, corage, perseverance and real challenges to also obtain proof. It meant, collaborations with several Astronomers who had to travel to specific areas and countries around the world in order to take the best photographs of full eclipses. In 1921, Western Australia the proof to his theory was finally obtained. It led to an international famous formula of E=mc2, the equivalence of mass energy. The same year, Einstein received a Nobel Prize in Physics not for theory of relativity instead for Photoelectric effect, the admission from the electrons when light shines directly onto material.
It has been stated that, his first wife Mileva Marić Einstein, also physicist who met Albert at the Polytechnic Institution, may have collaborated with some of Einstein’s early work. Furthermore, Albert promised to give Mileva and for the benefit of his children the entire funds from the Noble Prize, two years prior wining, he kept the promise and contributed full reward.
He loved animals, a quote regarding one of his dog named Chico ...
“The dog is very smart, he feels sorry for me because I receive so much mail, that’s why he tries to bite the mailman” and another quote about one of his cat named Tiger as apparently became melancholic when it rained “I know what’s wrong dear fellow but I don’t know how to turn it off” Albert Einstein…
