Learn and Understand the Theory of Relativity

Surely, you have heard the story of the astronaut coming back
to earth, looking as young and fit as when he left, with
everybody else on earth hardly being able to walk because of
the years added to their age, as a result of the difference in
how time passed on Earth as opposed to the time passing
over the astronaut. Many would argue that this is just an
illusion, when in fact, although not literally true, there is a
scientific explanation for this: indeed, you must have guessed it
by now, Einstein's theory of relativity is perfectly applicable and
it is Einstein's Theory of Relativity we need to resort to in
order to not only explain such hypothetical cases as this one,
but also understand the particularities of the world we live in.
Upon mentioning Einstein and his famous Theory of Relativity,
the first thing that comes to one's mind is the notorious E=mc
2 However, there is more to the theory of relativity than this:
in addition to the implications concerning mass and energy, it
implies further several areas, such as, among others: space,
time, and gravity. We invite you to join us on our journey
through the main points of Einstein's Theory of Relativity. This
booklet is, thus, intended to show beginners to a brief and
explanatory introduction to Einstein's Theory of Relativity –
what it means, how Einstein got to develop it, its ramifications,
as well as its applications and implications to present science
and our lives as we know them.
