Nov 6, 2010 - The ambitious Albert Einstein challenges centuries of scientific thought with his new controversial idea, the General Theory of Relativity. Mar 2, 2010 - One of the greatest contributions of Einstein was the development of the theory of relativity, which refers to two theories: special relativity and general relativity. This superluminal propulsion is achieved, In view of a possible extension of Einstein's general relativity into conformal gravity, in this paper we have reconsidered the Alcubierre WDM, basing it on CG rather than standard GR. Under general relativity there is no ether or constant frame of reference, and gravity is reduced simply to an effect of curving space-time. In 1994, Alcubierre introduced the so-called Warp Drive Metric (WDM), within the framework of general relativity (GR), which allows in principle for super-luminal motion, that is, faster-than-light travel [1]. May 8, 2014 - It was during the war years that Einstein introduced his theory of general relativity, more radical than his special relativity. Gravity: An Introduction to Einstein's General Relativity. Feb 5, 2014 - Before leaving the discussion about the current state of geometry, mathematics and physics (yes, it's been a whirlwind tour), there are a few of points regarding the predictions of Special and General Relativity that bear mentioning. The general relativity theory replaces that most basic and intuitive of concepts from Enlightenment physics, Newtonian gravity, with the Einstein fi eld equation. The theory of special relativity was introduced by Einstein in a paper published in 1905, titled "On the Electrodynamics of Moving Bodies". It sought This led to the assumption that an object in free fall is falling since no force is exerted upon it, instead of the force of gravity as believed by classical mechanics. Mar 13, 2014 - General relativity (GR) is the theory that replaces Newton's version of gravitation, but at the end of the day it's still gravity, and it has the same strength that it always did.
