Almost everyone has heard of Albert Einstein, the Nobel prize-winning genius whose theories overturned centuries of scientific thought. But how much do you understand the work that made him really famous - his theory of general relativity?
Here, we talk you through the science that changed the way we understand the universe.

ARG One of the fundamental ways that this theory changed physics was that it posited that the passage of time was relative based on several factors that include speed and gravity. Even more mind-boggling, time stands still at the speed of light as if there’s a cosmic “speed-limit” imposed on our universe. Gravitational fields are only one part of this theory.

gravity is still a force but as you might know there are four different types of mechanics and they all apply to different body sizes and speed. Newtonian mechanics work well with large mass and low speed whilst relativistic mechanics which is “Einsteinian” would work well for large mass with speed close to the speed of light, fast moving bodies. All theories work as lo g as they are applied to the correct situation.

While I appreciate what the BBC's trying to do here, anybody seeing this video doesn't know any more about general relativity than they started out. The 'spacetime is a fabric' explanation has been offered by popsci/documentaries for decades now and more or less everybody knows it. The problem is that that's not quite what the physics predicts. I suppose the fabric idea is a decent analogy, but it's fundamentally different to how things work. It's not that objects follow a curved path, a straight line -- or geodesic -- for a body near a massive object *is* curved. Think of it this way: Suppose the Earth was blind and sentient and you asked it how its moving. It's response would be that it's falling down in a straight line, and it is! It just so happens that the straight line traces an elliptical orbit. That was a not very great explanation of the equivalence principle, one of foundational insights that Einstein used to formulate his theory. However, to understand this subject with any level of rigor, you really need a lot of background math/physics with maybe a crash course in differential geometry, a few homework sets crunching through the nuances of lorentz boosts, perhaps derive through contractions of the Riemann tensor and otherwise wade through some fairly advanced (but beautiful) math. It's not an accident that most physicists (at least in the US) don't encounter general relativity till grad school. I was a brave (and stupid) undergrad and decided to give it a shot in my senior year after I did special relativity as part of my electromagnetics class. I ended up doing okay, but I can't honestly say I understood much from just those lectures/HWs/exams. It really took me more graduate coursework and doing research on computational cosmology for my thesis to get better at it. And I've still only barely scratched the surface. That last bit is probably true of any academic discipline.

Daniel Michael people are so intimidated by knowledge, clicking on a three minute video to “deepen [your] idea of relativity” just goes to show that it’s a fairly shallow understanding. Clearly you have no scientific background, it’s easy to criticise a video when you know nothing and pretend to know something, but I’m sure any true physicist would appreciate the video for what it is. You’re just a hotheaded prick, I’m sure you’re well versed in quantum mechanics as well, from the videos you’ve watched about it. Simply listening to analogies about it. Solve a spherically symmetric potential of the schrodinger equations, and maybe you understand. If you can’t grasp the maths of a theory, you don’t understand the theory. It’s as simple as that.

The theory of relativity is a theoretical preparation for passing through time and space, because space and time is a net, and mass can make it distorted. If a mass object, such as a black hole, causes time and space to collapse into the area, it directly reaches the other, the singularity. It is the export.

PBS did a better job but then it also took them 4 videos of 20-30 minutes duration to explain. Personally, General Relativity is still explainable. Quantum Mechanics is where one start pulling one's hair.

Much of quantum mechanics is very hard to near impossible to give intuitive explanations to, there simply is no good macro world analogue to how reality really works on most fundamental levels, there is no convenient trampoline. People try anyway, but all it really leads to is bunch of poor analogues that are more misleading than explaining. You have to do it the hard way, you have to learn the math. And that's the part that makes you pull your hair out.

Simply, It's all to do with "E". When taking away G from E, your left with Q. Times it by 2 gives you K, which if squared gives you M. And because you have a remaining two C's you have your result. So E does indeed equal M and C squared

That was a subpar presentation of Relativity and a vast miscorrect representation on why Einstein started thinking about relativity, which was based on the notion of time. Newton was convinced that time was Absolute in all frames of reference and Einstein thought that was a ridiculous statement and derived special relativity, his research into how acceleration worked and applying his theory of special relativity led to the famous discussion of how spacetime curvature represents the force that we call gravity.

And was a man not searching for attention. So all we've had ever since is a bunch of people who's mothers told them they were brilliant. And they've spent their lives trying to convince the world of their egos. And really haven't come up with anything. While all this time, people much more like Einstein have tirelessly worked on projects with no concern for recognition. And in the end get tied up by companies seeking profits and governments trying to capture knowledge and ability so they can drip feed it to the rest of the world. So you can feel indebted to them. I'm glad I appreciated that work. Even if I don't understand it.

0:23 Newton's laws did dxplain a lot but it was not before Einstein's theory of relativity that we got rid of his laws for today. For example, Einstein wasn't the one who discredited Newton's theory of light being only particles called Corpuscles (in reality light have both wave and particle properties). Newton's laws did not suddenly become discredited in the 20th century as the video suggests. Doesn't take much research to know this as well which disappoints me

@@NuclearCraftMod Generally relativity is political in accordance with maximum money making agenda “physics”. Galaxies disprove Einstein. Gravity is ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy. Here is the proof. WHY IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO SEPARATE inertia/INERTIAL RESISTANCE, gravity, AND ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy, AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is gravity; AS E=MC2 IS clearly F=MA IN BALANCE: Gravity is not fully and accurately described or accounted for by the idea of “curved” “space”. Consider the man who IS actually in what is outer “space”. Think about TIME. Consider what is THE MAN who IS standing on what is THE EARTH/ground. E=MC2 is CLEARLY proven to be F=ma ON BALANCE, as ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is gravity. Gravity is ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy. TIME dilation ULTIMATELY proves (ON BALANCE) that E=MC2 is CLEARLY F=ma ON BALANCE, as gravity AND ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy are linked AND BALANCED opposites; as gravity/acceleration involves BALANCED inertia/INERTIAL RESISTANCE; as ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is gravity; as GRAVITATIONAL force/ENERGY IS proportional to (or BALANCED with/as) what is inertia/INERTIAL RESISTANCE. “Mass”/ENERGY involves BALANCED inertia/INERTIAL RESISTANCE consistent with/as what is BALANCED electromagnetic/gravitational force/ENERGY, as E=MC2 is CLEARLY proven to be F=ma ON BALANCE; as ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is gravity.

Energy has/involves GRAVITY, AND ENERGY has/involves inertia/INERTIAL RESISTANCE. Carefully consider what is THE SUN. Think about TIME. Consider what is the speed of light (c). The stars AND PLANETS are POINTS in the night sky. It all CLEARLY makes perfect sense. BALANCE AND completeness go hand in hand. Gravity is ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy ON BALANCE. By Frank DiMeglio ABSOLUTE MATHEMATICAL PROOF THAT ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is gravity, AS E=MC2 IS clearly F=MA ON BALANCE: The balance of being and experience is essential. THE SELF represents, FORMS, and experiences a COMPREHENSIVE approximation of experience in general by combining conscious and unconscious experience. GREAT !!! Think. ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is gravity, as gravity/acceleration involves BALANCED inertia/INERTIAL RESISTANCE; as E=mc2 is F=ma. Accordingly, the rotation of what is the Moon matches it's revolution. GRAVITATIONAL force/ENERGY is proportional to (or BALANCED with/as) inertia/INERTIAL RESISTANCE, as gravity AND ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy are linked AND BALANCED opposites; as E=mc2 is F=ma ON BALANCE. Carefully consider what is the speed of light (c). The stars AND PLANETS are POINTS in the night sky. Accordingly, ON BALANCE, the PLANETS will move away very, very, very slightly in relation to what is the Sun. THE EARTH/ground AND what is the Sun are CLEARLY linked AND BALANCED opposites, as E=mc2 is F=ma !!! “Mass”/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is gravity. BALANCED inertia/INERTIAL RESISTANCE is fundamental. Energy has/involves GRAVITY, AND ENERGY has/involves inertia/INERTIAL RESISTANCE. THE EARTH is blue, AND the sky is ALSO BLUE ON BALANCE. Gravity is CLEARLY proven to be ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy on balance. E=MC2 is CLEARLY proven to be F=ma ON BALANCE. This NECESSARILY represents, INVOLVES, AND DESCRIBES what is possible/potential AND actual IN BALANCE, as ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is gravity; as objects fall at the SAME RATE (neglecting air resistance, of course). Gravity is ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy. TIME dilation ULTIMATELY proves ON BALANCE that E=mc2 is F=ma, as ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is gravity.

Time is not affected because it has no end or is perceptively sensual, because time is only a measure of any speed, it is just a (measure) What is affected is the speed, and this depends on the mass of the body + the force of the driving energy of the body Or that there is no mass, here the speed exceeds the limits until it reaches the stage of the mind not realizing it Accelerometer (The so-called time) is affected because the measure of time is a tangible body that has a mass or a perceptual feeling to a certain extent in relation to the human mind. We must differentiate between speed and time (accelerometer) Speed ​​has no limits relative to the mind or its perception, and time also has no limits because it depends on speed in measuring or translating it. This means when there is a speed, there will be a translation of this speed, which is (time) Emphasis on this statement if we recorded my voice as an example, meaning that the counting of numbers for one person was recorded, and we copied the same copy on another recording device for the same The sound, then we took a recording of the two, one of them is placed in the moving body and the other is fixed on the ground. We will find that there is no difference in the time count. Because the real difference is only the speed that affects the body, not the time
