Education
"The only thing that interferes with my learning is my education"
-Albert Einstein
Albert Einstein was born on March 14, 1879 in Germany to a Jewish couple. While having initial complications with a misshapen head during child birth, he grew normally. However it was commented by Albert Einstein's relatives that he was a little slow. Einstein's lack of intelligent was shown by his late age of learning how to speak. His first formal education (besides the private education he received before school) was at a Catholic school in Munich . This institution was short-lived because of Einstein's taste and disagreements with the professor. He left the school and Ulm Germans and moved to Milan .
While in Milan , Einstein wanted to continue his primary education, and in 1895 took his entrance exam to ETH in Zurich . His scores were not sufficient enough to allow him to enter the primary school, instead he went to a community school in the nearby city of Aarau . In 1896 he received his school certificate and enrolled ETH with intentions in becoming a mathematics or physics teacher. Einstein got average marks while in ETH and received his diploma in 1900, is GPA was 4.6 out of 6.0. Einstein eagerly applied to numerous Universities, looking for an assistantship but was denied to all of them. While looking for a school for higher education, Einstein gave up his German citizenship and applied for a Swiss one instead. He was given Swiss citizenship in 1901.
Einstein was desperate for work, for a year he was a teacher at a Technical High School in Winterthur and a private school in Schaffhausen, and soon afterward he moved to the Switzerland capital, Bern . Work was till difficult to find in Switzerland and Einstien found him...

Although there are not many practical applications for the theory of relativity there are many uses in the scientific world including black holes and planetary motion. But one day, there might be a way to use relativity for time travel.

He was never a president of the United States, nor did he lead any army in a battle. He had no talent in public speaking, preferring to write out his thoughts on paper and for them to be read aloud by others. Yet in his day he was certainly one of the most well known celebrities, beloved in both the United States and through most of Europe. He is Benjamin Franklin, and he has become a symbol of American civilization.
Benjamin Franklin was one of the most significant figures during the 18th century. The significance of Benjamin Franklin can be observed through his contributions to society. Such contributions include his profession as a printer, the creation of the first subscription library, the creation of Poor Richard’s Almanac, and his experiments with electricity. In addition, Franklin also tried to reconcile the differences between England and America, and when that proved futile, he traveled to France in an attempt to convince the French to support America in their quest for independence from England. At one point in time Benjamin Franklin was the most famous American on the planet.
Benjamin Franklin was an inventor, scientist, writer, statesman, printer, musician, philosopher, and much much more. Benjamin Franklin is best known as an inventor and scientist, however. In 1752, he conducted (no pun intended) a kite experiment. Ben was also one of America’s founding fathers. He helped draft the Declaration of Independance and the United States Constitution. He also negotiated the Treaty of Paris which concluded the Revolutionary War.
The Famous and Brilliant, Albert Einstein, was born in Germany in 1879. Einstein was born into a Jewish family, and grew up in Munich, Germany, where his father and uncle collectively ran a company that produced electrical equipment. Later in his childhood, Einstein’s family moved to Italy, then to Switzerland not long after. In 1896, Einstein renounced his German citizenship so that he would be able to avoid the Obligatory military service.

Travelling through time is certainly easy to imagine. You step into the time machine; press a few buttons; and emerge out not just anywhere – but anywhen. However, in reality things aren’t quite as convenient as science fiction would suggest, as you will understand later on.
Albert Einstein was the first child born to Hermann and Pauline Einstein, Jewish, middle-class Germans, on March 14, 1879 at Ulm, in Wurttemberg, Germany. Albert's sister, Maria, was born in November of 1881. They remained close throughout their lives.Einstein and sister 1 The Einstein family moved to Munich in 1880 to start their own business. Albert began his secondary schooling at Luitpold-Gymnasium. In 1894, the family business failed and the family moved to Milan, Italy. Albert stayed behind in Munich to finish his education at the Gymnasium. However, Albert hated the high school he attended and a teacher recommended that he leave, as his presence encouraged students' disrespect for teachers. So, at 15, he quit school to join his family in Italy.
Einstein was born March 14, 1879, in Ulm, Germany to Hermann Einstein and Pauline Koch, almost immediately the Einstein relocated to Munich, Germany where they started an electrotechnical business (Lewis). He began school in the Luitpold Gymnasium but due to their family’s business competitive market they moved to Milan, Italy for better opportunities. During His time in Milan Einstein studied in preparation to attend The Swiss Federal Polytechnic school in Zurich who admitted students through an exam. Once Einstein took the exam he came to learn that he had failed, although he was no admitted he did not give up on attending The Swiss Polytechnic. He eventually attended the Polytechnic school, having to first graduate from Aarau that guaranteed admittance. Although he had succeeded in being admitted and graduating from The Swiss Polytechnic many
Einstein’s education was unconventional for a person who was to become a success. Early on, he was failing a large number of his courses; and he transferred from a German school at age fifteen to a Swiss school, so that he could avoid compulsive military service in the German armed forces. By the age of sixteen, he officially became a school dropout. His grade school principle made the statement to his parents, “it didn’t matter what profession the boy prepared for because he wo...
Einstein’s education, life experiences, and “freethinking ability contributed to his success and ability in his life.” Albert Einstein, to this day is still one of the most accomplished and respected mathematician/ inventor in the world. Einstein’s journey was one filled with challenges, discoveries, and many accomplishments. On March 14, 1879, Albert Einstein was born in Wurttemberg, Germany to Jewish parents Hermann, and Pauline Einstein. Shortly after Albert’s birth, his father and mother eagerly collected their personal belongings as well as their new baby boy and moved to the Kingdom of Munich, now Germany. Following his families move to Munich, in November of 1881 Einstein’s parents gave birth to a little girl, with such a delicate sweet face. They named her Maria, who was soon to become Albert’s new little angelic best friend.
Einstein was born in 1879 in Germany. When he was a small child he didn’t show any high intelligence. In fact he even took a while to learn how to speak. He was a smart kid but it took a while for people to notice his intelligence. He would ask questions his own teachers couldn’t answer and he even taught himself calculus. He took an entrance exam for Swiss Federal Polytechnic School and failed. He failed but he was still admitted a year later. While doing his regular work he also studied physics on his own. He applied for an academic position but was rejected. Why would they reject such an intelligent man? But they did and in 1902 he was hired as a patent examiner in Berne. In 1905 his intelligence came out of the dark. He invented the theory E=mc2 that means (energy equals mass times the speed of light squared) and the theory of light.
Well, what is time dilation exactly? Time dilation is the difference of elapsed time from two different locations of different masses. An example of time dilation is an astronaut in space experiences 5 years, but on earth everyone else had experienced 10 years instead of 5 because of time dilation. The proof behind time dilation has been confirmed by physical scientist through experiments. As seen in,Time Travel by Jason Lisle,“Physical experiments have confirmed his calculations. Moving clocks tick slower than stationary ones by exactly the rate that Einstein computed.” This explains how time dilation is confirmed a true possibility and can be possibly used to travel through
Time traveling has been a discussion brought upon by many philosophers. Many of them have questioned whether or not time travel is possible, and what it would do to our time consistency. They have also argued whether time is an idea we ourselves have constructed, and how important it is to understand time in regards to time traveling. In order to proof that time traveling is possible (or impossible), philosophers came up with the grandfather paradox. Philosophers like David Lewis, then came up with a solution to the paradox and thus proved the never ending cycle of theories—and contradicting theories. David Lewis brings up valid arguments in “The Paradoxes of Time Travel” and has helped many people understand the concept of time traveling.
Time travel has been drifting in the science-fiction category for millennia now, from Greek mythology to modern physics. Thinking about the fact that maybe one day humans can step inside a machine and press a button to arrive not somewhere, but somewhen is extraordinary, reinforced by the boundless amount of information from movies and novels such as Back to The Future and The Clay Lion. With all this information begs the essential question, is it possible? Many scientists have now reinvestigated time travel considering it to be non-fiction with all the theories that have come up over the century about time travel, on news articles or social media. If it is not clear, time travel is not an effortless task, it involves a understanding of quantum
Einstein: No not at all, lets see here... I was born in Ulm, Germany on March 14th of 1874. I was raised mostly in Munich, Germany. One very odd thing that my mother told me was that I didn't speak until I was three years old. My father owned a small electrochemical shop, once it failed in 1890 then my dad moved us to Million, Italy.
