100 examples of Relativity in a sentence

Under extreme conditions, general relativity and quantum theory allow time to behave like another dimension of space.
This has led to countless instructors of general relativity doing a really silly dance to demonstrate in their classes on general relativity.
This is a year when Einstein is basking in the glow of having discovered the special theory of relativity and decides to take on a new project, to try to understand fully the grand, pervasive force of gravity.
His theory of relativity tells us that time passes for everyone, but doesn’t always pass at the same rate for people in different situations, like those travelling close to the speed of light or orbiting a supermassive black hole.
General relativity describes the behavior of very large things, while quantum physics explains the very small.
A hundred years ago, Albert Einstein first published his theory of general relativity.
The German physicist Werner Heisenberg said, "When I meet God, I'm going to ask him two questions: why relativity and why turbulence?
The well established principle of relativity, going all the way back to Galileo, stated that absolute motion could not be defined.
It took Einstein only a few weeks to work out the details and formulate what came to be known as special relativity.
One might think that this was enough, but in September, a fourth paper arrived as a "by the way" follow-up to the special relativity paper.
It was only after his later general theory of relativity was confirmed in 1919 by measuring the bending of starlight during a solar eclipse that the press would turn him into a celebrity.
A little over 100 years ago, in 1915, Einstein published his theory of general relativity, which is sort of a strange name, but it's a theory that explains gravity.
Another one was on the theory of special relativity.
Ten years after the original, miraculous year that I described, Einstein was putting together the pieces of his theory of general relativity, his greatest achievement.
So he's laying down the theoretical foundation for the laser beam, and then, while he's doing that, he moves back to general relativity, and he's refreshed.
Now, if we consider a different ray of light, one going off like this, we now need to take into account what Einstein predicted when he developed general relativity.
There has been almost no progress on this thing called "general AI," where you go to an AI and say, "Hey, invent for me special relativity or string theory."
One small part of this E8 shape can be used to describe the curved space-time of Einstein's general relativity, explaining gravity.
It was begun with the invention of relativity theory and quantum theory.
So this is general relativity, this is quantum theory.
And not only that, they make the analogy to relativity theory and cosmology often.
At the same time, we physicists have been busy trying to make sense of and build on and integrate the discoveries of quantum theory and relativity.
And they were inspired not by the young Einstein, who did the great work in relativity, but by the old Einstein, the icon of poster and t-shirt, who failed in his scientific efforts to unify the physical laws.
But from having studied special relativity, the twins know it’s not that simple.
But it’s not really a paradox– just an example of how special relativity can be easily misunderstood.
And as twins who are eleven years apart in age, they’re a perfect example of special relativity.
Today, one of the biggest paradoxes in the universe threatens to unravel the fields of general relativity and quantum mechanics: the black hole information paradox.
Others have suggested the paradox is just a misunderstanding of how general relativity and quantum field theory interact.
And this is actually the field of mathematics that underlies general relativity and is actually ultimately going to show us about the shape of the universe.
So there is this direct line between feminine handicraft, Euclid and general relativity.
