Einstein's theory of relativity is super important in the new 'Avengers: Endgame' teaser trailer and at the end of 'Captain Marvel.' ...

Special relativity was discovered first, by Einstein, in 1905. Two years later, in 1907, Michelson was awarded the Nobel Prize for his interferometer experiments proving the constancy of the speed ...

If special relativity were correct, they'd remain unchanged, which cannot be correct. Instead, to conserve energy, we have to accept that light must change its wavelength ...

But special relativity tells us that when it comes to light, speed is always constant. Which would mean that the other two variables would have to change - time and distance. And they do.

The journal Nature’s special report, “General Relativity at 100,” focuses on the past and the future of relativity research, and offers a companion e-book for $9.99.
