    Albert Einstein, a famous physicist, was born in Germany on March 14, 1879 in a Jewish family.

    He was introduced to key science and mathematics at the age of 10 by one of their family friends Max

    Talmud. This started his journey of the passionate world of physics.During his lifetime, he has published about 300 scientific papers and has contributed in more than

    150 non-scientific works.

    In 1921, Einstein won a Nobel Prize for discovering the law of photoelectric effect. In addition, he

    is well known for his immense contribution to science with the theory of relativity and also the famous

    massenergy equation,E= mc2.His other significant work was in 1910 when he explained why sky is blue through his paper on

    the effect of light scattered by the molecules in the atmosphere. Along with his mathematician friend,

    Marcel Grossmann, Einstein also explored a new phase of research called Gravitational Research.

    Along with his student Leo Szilard, he invented a refrigerator which was patented in 1930. This

    invention paved way for scientists to investigate further to develop an eco-friendly refrigerator. This

    refrigerator was honored by Time Magazine as the 31st best invention in the publication of Top 50

    inventions of 2008.His contributions brought an immense radical change in the views of scientists worldwide. Before

    his research, many theories were just assumed to be true without proper scientific proof. It was also

    believed that time was constant. But his special theory of relativity later served as base for many

    scientists to understand and validate his findin s.
