Join us for an engaging talk by physicist Steve Adams that delves into the scientific legacy of Albert Einstein, one of the most influential thinkers in history.
The presentation will highlight three key areas of Einstein’s groundbreaking work:
The special theory of relativity, including the famous equation E = mc²; the concept of curved spacetime in the general theory of relativity, which transformed our understanding of gravity; Einstein’s pivotal role in the development of quantum theory, dispelling the myth that he was an outsider opposed to it.
With a light touch on mathematics, the talk is accessible to anyone familiar with basic geometry and the idea of imaginary numbers. But don’t worry if you haven’t encountered these concepts before – everything will be explained! Come ready to explore the ideas that continue to shape our understanding of the universe.
