00:00:00Some people wonder, how does Einstein think? How does the physicist think?
00:00:12Most of it is when we are alone and we are looking at the screen.
00:00:17When we are looking at different equations, and when these equations are understood, we just write a letter.
00:00:26Until this question is answered, to write the equation of everything,
00:00:32the only thing we can do is to write the letters again,
00:00:36that's why we have them in all our notebooks.
00:00:39He was always thinking about these figures, to form an image in his mind.
00:00:44When his father gives him a compass, he will keep it every night,
00:00:48thinking about everything he shows to the world.
00:00:53Einstein once said, I want to develop God's thoughts in a mathematical way.
00:01:00Einstein wanted to develop an equation not more than one centimeter,
00:01:05that would encompass all the laws of physics.
00:01:11The beauty, the majesty and the enigmas of the whole universe in one equation.
00:01:18That was his goal.
00:01:22In 1900, Albert Einstein was a 21-year-old man, studying at the Federal University of Switzerland.
00:01:29The fact that he would come up with a genius synonym,
00:01:33was something that none of his professors had ever thought of.
00:01:37He would come up with a synonym, that none of his professors had ever thought of.
00:01:42He would come up with a synonym, that none of his professors had ever thought of.
00:01:47He would come up with a synonym, that none of his professors had ever thought of.
00:01:51He would come up with a synonym, that none of his professors had ever thought of.
00:01:54This is one of the reasons that Einstein had the courage to find a job after finishing his studies.
00:01:59He also wanted to change his profession and work in a different insurance company.
00:02:04Imagine opening a notebook and looking at what happened to Albert Einstein,
00:02:09who took insurance in his lifetime.
00:02:12He wrote a letter to his family,
00:02:15saying that maybe it would have been better if he hadn't been fired.
00:02:20Nobody cared about him.
00:02:26He worked as an insurance agent,
00:02:29doing different jobs in different cities for short periods of time.
00:02:33His father applied to Einstein for academic positions without his knowledge.
00:02:38He also wrote to a famous professor,
00:02:42where he asked him to hire his son as an assistant for different insurance applications,
00:02:47but he had no money to pay for those job positions.
00:02:57In 1902, stressed and outraged by others,
00:03:02Einstein moved to Berna, the capital of Switzerland,
00:03:05where he began a career that had nothing to do with insurance.
00:03:08Out of shock, he found a job in Zurich,
00:03:11which had to do with the issuance of licenses.
00:03:16In this Zurich, on his third year,
00:03:19Einstein spent six days a week,
00:03:22checking all kinds of different insurance applications
00:03:25that the Swiss government had created for him.
00:03:28In one of his licenses, he had all the information about a certain request,
00:03:33and he had to fulfill it.
00:03:35This was a challenge for him.
00:03:37It also made him more confident as a physicist.
00:03:40He was very fast in solving the equations he had to analyze.
00:03:44This job didn't require any special skills.
00:03:47It was not a bad thing for him.
00:03:49This job gave him ample time to study at the university.
00:03:53I think he wouldn't have been an Isot,
00:03:56if he had worked at the university as an assistant.
00:03:59The job in the licensing process was more suitable for him.
00:04:02From this job, Einstein will start a revolution
00:04:05that will change the history of the world.
00:04:16Einstein will change the perception of how the universe works.
00:04:20In 1905, which was also his birthday,
00:04:23he published four letters of advice,
00:04:26which gave him a very special opportunity
00:04:29to show that light is light.
00:04:34These letters, written by an unknown person at the time,
00:04:38show that light is produced by photons,
00:04:41which is an elementary explanation for electromagnetic phenomena.
00:04:45We use these when we go on television, in other lasers.
00:04:49In another letter, Einstein, 26 years old,
00:04:52publishes what everyone already knows,
00:04:55the existence of atoms.
00:04:57At the time, people didn't believe in such things,
00:05:00but he proved that matter is made up of small particles,
00:05:03called atoms.
00:05:07These letters will help him to create a writing career
00:05:10for any other star,
00:05:12but for Einstein, this is not the case.
00:05:15He will also write another letter,
00:05:17with the famous equation,
00:05:19which is equal to four.
00:05:21This shows that matter can be converted into energy,
00:05:24and energy into matter.
00:05:26And a very small part of matter
00:05:28contains a very large amount of energy.
00:05:31To convert this energy,
00:05:33a nuclear reaction is required,
00:05:35something that happens almost every night in the sky.
00:05:38Ever since people began to observe the sky,
00:05:41they will ask themselves what they are doing.
00:05:45But it was Albert Einstein
00:05:47who will answer this question.
00:05:49Mass M will be equal to energy,
00:05:53and that is the engine that lifts up the stars.
00:05:59Today, the equation E is equal to four,
00:06:02which is one of Einstein's most famous equations,
00:06:05but another equation
00:06:07will be even more controversial,
00:06:10the special theory of relativity.
00:06:14When Einstein was a teenager,
00:06:16he was wondering how he could fly in a straight line.
00:06:19But he found the answer,
00:06:21which will change his life.
00:06:24In the spring of 1905,
00:06:26Einstein got on a bus
00:06:28and crossed the city wall.
00:06:34At this time, he imagined
00:06:36what would happen to the bus
00:06:38if it hit him with the speed of light.
00:06:42After he crossed the wall,
00:06:44what he would discover
00:06:46would be more dangerous.
00:06:48While he was running with the speed of light,
00:06:51the speed of light seemed to be changing.
00:06:54Einstein would later write a thesis,
00:06:56a statement of determination,
00:06:58and it seemed that everything
00:07:00kept gushing forward.
00:07:03Einstein knew that
00:07:05the speed of light in the city
00:07:07was passing normally,
00:07:09but in his bus of speed of light,
00:07:11the speed of light in the city
00:07:13could no longer catch up to him.
00:07:16The faster the speed of light,
00:07:18the more he noticed his television on the wall.
00:07:21This idea gave rise to his theory of relativity,
00:07:24which explains why the wall and the wall
00:07:26are connected in a different way.
00:07:28In fact, they are one and the same,
00:07:30a flexible three-dimensional factory
00:07:32called the wall-based time.
00:07:36Sitting alone in a bus,
00:07:38Einstein believed he had uncovered
00:07:40the secret of the universe.
00:07:43For Einstein, the wall was there
00:07:45where the matter was.
00:07:47He didn't do anything else.
00:07:49Here, the wall, combined with the time,
00:07:52forms the concept of the wall-based time.
00:07:55This is a dynamic reflection of this arena,
00:07:58where everything happens,
00:08:00which, as the wind blows,
00:08:02becomes even more violent.
00:08:04This was something real.
00:08:06Very real, something radical,
00:08:08he had read the latest newspapers
00:08:10about the wall-based time.
00:08:12He wasn't a part of physics at the time,
00:08:14even though he lived in Switzerland
00:08:16and worked in the field of licenses.
00:08:18Regardless of this fact,
00:08:20Einstein was a very ambitious man,
00:08:22who believed that he could change
00:08:24all the theories of physics at the time.
00:08:26He was sure that his discoveries
00:08:28would be revealed,
00:08:30and they would sound like something
00:08:32he had seen for the first time
00:08:34in the field of physics.
00:08:36But something very real happened.
00:08:38Regardless of the concept of time,
00:08:40he went very far in the field
00:08:42where he worked.
00:08:44He submitted papers
00:08:46with his findings,
00:08:48the most famous newspapers of the time,
00:08:50hoping for the best.
00:08:52But the good didn't come
00:08:54as soon as he hoped.
00:08:56Einstein knew
00:08:58how the committee of physicists
00:09:00would react to his discoveries.
00:09:02Einstein knew he was wrong.
00:09:04Three, four, five months later,
00:09:06this was certainly the time
00:09:08when he had a breakthrough.
00:09:10After his discoveries,
00:09:12the only person who could fully understand
00:09:14them was Max Planck.
00:09:16Max Planck was the best physicist
00:09:18in Europe.
00:09:20Planck was the editor of the newspaper
00:09:22Die Anwohner Physik in Berlin.
00:09:24Planck was the editor of the newspaper
00:09:26Die Anwohner Physik in Berlin.
00:09:28Planck was the editor of the newspaper
00:09:30Die Anwohner Physik in Berlin.
00:09:32The most important newspaper
00:09:34that deals with discoveries
00:09:36in the field of physics.
00:09:38And it so happened that Max Planck
00:09:40was reading the discoveries
00:09:42of an unknown physicist.
00:09:44Planck said, there is something here.
00:09:46Planck recognized it.
00:09:48We understood at one point
00:09:50that it was an important letter
00:09:52from a Syrian study.
00:09:54A letter that, according to the
00:09:56Theory of Relativity,
00:09:58that letter, letter 17,
00:10:00is one of the most important
00:10:02discoveries in the field of science.
00:10:04At that time, Einstein was not yet
00:10:06an established scientist.
00:10:08He was still looking for a job,
00:10:10but he always refused.
00:10:14That year is considered
00:10:16to be a difficult year,
00:10:18but I believe that Einstein
00:10:20did not even know a little
00:10:22about the miracles of that time.
00:10:24Miracles do not understand
00:10:26what comes easily.
00:10:32I don't think that Planck
00:10:34knew that Einstein had
00:10:36a job in the field of science.
00:10:38So he must have done
00:10:40something to find out
00:10:42who this unknown person was.
00:10:46This unknown person was
00:10:48the father of a young man
00:10:50and the partner of a serious
00:10:52student who had found him
00:10:54at the Swiss Polytechnic
00:10:56University, Mileva Maric.
00:11:00When he was at the Polytechnic
00:11:02in Zurich, Einstein loved
00:11:04violins very much.
00:11:06He played the violin
00:11:08and the violins were always
00:11:10beautiful. We can say that he
00:11:12was in love with different
00:11:14violins, but Mileva was
00:11:16always on his side.
00:11:18Mileva was the only violin
00:11:20that Einstein had.
00:11:24Einstein and Mileva
00:11:26were married in 1903
00:11:28and a year later
00:11:30their ideal son, Hans Albert,
00:11:32was born.
00:11:36The Einstein family
00:11:38lived in this small apartment
00:11:40in the Swiss capital.
00:11:42There were some rare
00:11:44violins that he did not
00:11:46see in that life that he
00:11:48had at that time.
00:11:50Mileva's desire was to
00:11:52become a physicist at one time,
00:11:54but his results at the
00:11:56Polytechnic University were
00:11:58not good. He made a very
00:12:00good impression on Einstein,
00:12:02even in his theory of
00:12:04relativity. He was good
00:12:06at writing and controlling
00:12:08mathematical formulas, but
00:12:10in fact, he was just an
00:12:12idiot.
00:12:14Einstein wanted to
00:12:16do his research,
00:12:18even though he worked
00:12:20six days a week.
00:12:22In 1907,
00:12:24Einstein wrote a new article
00:12:26to explain his theory of
00:12:28relativity, but when he
00:12:30looked at his theory, he realized
00:12:32that it was very limited.
00:12:34That's why I call it the Special
00:12:36Theory of Relativity, for a reason.
00:12:38Because this theory is only
00:12:40about constant acceleration.
00:12:42In short, the Special Theory
00:12:44of Relativity can be applied
00:12:46in special cases, when objects
00:12:48are driven in a direction with
00:12:50a constant speed. But Einstein
00:12:52wanted to understand the
00:12:54real world, and in this world
00:12:56things do not work this way.
00:12:58Einstein realized that his
00:13:00theorist could accelerate,
00:13:02and in our world, everything
00:13:04changes its speed. Cars,
00:13:06airplanes, people, etc.
00:13:08So we can say that there was
00:13:10a shortcoming in his theory
00:13:12that if objects change
00:13:14their speed, then his theory
00:13:16in the way that objects
00:13:18are driven by the notion of
00:13:20space-time, there is no understanding.
00:13:22Einstein wanted his theory
00:13:24of all cases to be
00:13:26not limited. Einstein knew
00:13:28that his theory was the most
00:13:30accurate, and he had to calculate
00:13:32everything in the universe.
00:13:34This is the incredible force
00:13:36that makes everything possible.
00:13:38Gravity. Gravity
00:13:40comes from everywhere.
00:13:42It takes us to the earth,
00:13:44to the sun, to other
00:13:46celestial systems. Where does
00:13:48gravity come from in Einstein's
00:13:50theory? Einstein wanted
00:13:52to apply his special theory
00:13:54of relativity in a predictable
00:13:56theory that would be accepted
00:13:58by everyone. A theory that would
00:14:00explain not only the universe,
00:14:02but also gravity. He understood
00:14:04that he was asking for everything
00:14:06in a two-dimensional space-time
00:14:08universe.
00:14:10It's 1997, and Einstein,
00:14:12the 28-year-old, is still
00:14:14working on his book.
00:14:16It's been two years since
00:14:18the publication of his special
00:14:20theory of relativity, and
00:14:22Einstein is ambitious,
00:14:24trying to find a more radical
00:14:26interpretation of how the universe
00:14:28works, the general theory of
00:14:30relativity. By doing all this,
00:14:32he will be able to surpass
00:14:34his science hero, Isaac Newton.
00:14:36In Einstein's time, Isaac
00:14:38Newton was like God.
00:14:42Newton was the founder
00:14:44of modern science.
00:14:46Newton's first book is
00:14:48Mathematical Principles,
00:14:50in 1687.
00:14:52This priceless book
00:14:54is very impressive.
00:14:56It's a very famous book,
00:14:58which is the foundation of
00:15:00universal physics, until
00:15:02Einstein published his
00:15:04book. It has been over
00:15:06250 years since the
00:15:08discovery of the legendary
00:15:10Newtonian ball, and also
00:15:12the attempt to formulate
00:15:14the law of gravity itself.
00:15:16Newton said,
00:15:18if an object moves,
00:15:20it's because there's a mysterious
00:15:22force of gravity, which
00:15:24pushes it, and you know,
00:15:26Newton himself was a little
00:15:28surprised by this law.
00:15:30Objects move because they're
00:15:32pushed, not pulled, but
00:15:34they're pushed, so what's the
00:15:36difference?
00:15:38Newton didn't know,
00:15:40so Newton said, through his
00:15:42hands, I don't know, and
00:15:44said, I'm going to do something
00:15:46called the law of gravitational
00:15:48push. Einstein said, no,
00:15:50this theory can't be right.
00:15:52He was prepared to
00:15:54truly understand the
00:15:56laws of the universe.
00:15:58Max Planck,
00:16:00he was prepared.
00:16:02He can work on gravity,
00:16:04but he has two problems.
00:16:06First, he can't go
00:16:08to bed, because the problem
00:16:10is very difficult.
00:16:12Even if he goes to bed,
00:16:14no one will believe him.
00:16:16It's not clear, it's not
00:16:18doing it at all.
00:16:20Ultimately,
00:16:22he doesn't know
00:16:24how to get to the end.
00:16:26His way of thinking,
00:16:28his experimental way of thinking
00:16:30was the key to his work.
00:16:32What I call invention,
00:16:34he calls experimental thinking,
00:16:36because he was the inventor,
00:16:38he was Einstein.
00:16:40In his office, while he's
00:16:42being watched by the boss,
00:16:44he imagines a man working
00:16:46in the chat and starts
00:16:48thinking about what's going
00:16:50to happen, if he's the person
00:16:52who's going to leave the chat.
00:16:54And then he had a brilliant
00:16:56idea of what he was going
00:16:58to change.
00:17:00He had a vision.
00:17:02The man won't be affected
00:17:04by the force of gravity,
00:17:06he's going to leave the chat.
00:17:08And then he imagines that
00:17:10if you're the brain of a sensor
00:17:12and the brain of a computer,
00:17:14then whatever happens to you,
00:17:16you die and the sensor dies
00:17:18with you, while the same thing
00:17:20happens to you. So you're not
00:17:22the brain of the sensor.
00:17:24It's as if the force of gravity
00:17:26doesn't work anymore. What's
00:17:28actually going to happen?
00:17:30There is no such thing as gravity.
00:17:32The object has pushed me
00:17:34into this chair.
00:17:36Space can be curved.
00:17:46That's crazy.
00:17:48Space is curved.
00:17:50Yes, it's curved.
00:17:52This is flexible.
00:17:54Anything can happen.
00:17:56You put an object in space
00:17:58and it just sells for me
00:18:00being in space by its size.
00:18:02Why does the Earth rotate around the Earth?
00:18:04Most people will tell you
00:18:06that gravity rotates around the Earth.
00:18:08This is a mistake he made.
00:18:12Wrong.
00:18:14The Earth is going around the Earth
00:18:16because it's in space,
00:18:18not what is around it.
00:18:20Space is pushing the Earth
00:18:22toward the Sun.
00:18:28Einstein published
00:18:30his idea of gravity
00:18:32and at the same time
00:18:34his work with the dark atoms
00:18:36in the center of the universe.
00:18:38As a result,
00:18:40in 1911, he was offered
00:18:42a job as a scientist
00:18:44full-time at the University of Zürich.
00:18:46It was for the first time
00:18:48that he became
00:18:50Professor Albert Einstein.
00:18:52People started to understand
00:18:54that his discoveries
00:18:56in 1905
00:18:58could have been accurate.
00:19:00They invited Einstein
00:19:02to various conferences
00:19:04where he became
00:19:06one of the greatest physicists
00:19:08in Europe.
00:19:10Convened by the Belgian philanthropist
00:19:12Ernest Solvay,
00:19:14these conferences
00:19:16he was the best professor.
00:19:22He made a very good invention.
00:19:24He was a magician,
00:19:26a joker, and above all
00:19:28he was easy. Very easy.
00:19:30People saw that.
00:19:34That was also a moment
00:19:36when Einstein knew
00:19:38that he was also part of this world
00:19:40where Einstein had become
00:19:42part of a bigger world.
00:19:46She writes letters
00:19:48asking for details
00:19:50about these conferences,
00:19:52telling me what happened,
00:19:54what would have happened
00:19:56if she had agreed with him,
00:19:58if she had wished
00:20:00to see one of these scientists.
00:20:02This was a good underground.
00:20:04Einstein's discoveries
00:20:06became the subject
00:20:08of European scientists' discussions.
00:20:10He tried to make a speech
00:20:12in Berlin, the capital of the country
00:20:14the most middle-class city
00:20:16in Central Europe.
00:20:18Einstein had not yet arrived
00:20:20in Germany,
00:20:22from the time he left
00:20:24for the first time
00:20:26in the 15th century.
00:20:28When Einstein was fighting
00:20:30in Berlin to meet
00:20:32different colleagues,
00:20:34he met a cousin,
00:20:36a first cousin,
00:20:38named Elsa Einstein.
00:20:40They had lost trust
00:20:42in each other in the 1910s.
00:20:44She was alone.
00:20:46She was divorced and had two kids.
00:20:48Elsa was the opposite
00:20:50of her cousin.
00:20:52She was not a scientist
00:20:54or an intellectual person,
00:20:56but she loved to read
00:20:58the big books
00:21:00and to take care of Einstein.
00:21:02They spent a lot of time
00:21:04in each other's society,
00:21:06they lived together,
00:21:08they were inspired by each other.
00:21:10They lived in a house
00:21:12where she asked Elsa
00:21:14not to write more letters.
00:21:16Maybe she understood
00:21:18that the situation was getting
00:21:20more and more complicated
00:21:22because she was Albert Einstein.
00:21:24If you look at Zemmer's
00:21:26first research on Einstein,
00:21:28the mysteries of the universe
00:21:30are being researched even more.
00:21:32The curvature of space,
00:21:34the notion of space-time
00:21:36and other things,
00:21:38the theory of relativity.
00:21:40His theory of relativity
00:21:42was so complicated
00:21:44that very few people
00:21:46could understand it.
00:21:48It's not a hypothesis
00:21:50that you can test,
00:21:52it's not a science,
00:21:54it's a scientific fantasy.
00:21:56Einstein knew that he was
00:21:58on the right track
00:22:00to develop his theory.
00:22:02Now he had to find a way
00:22:04to prove it.
00:22:06Einstein had perfected
00:22:08the theory of relativity.
00:22:10His theory wouldn't accept it
00:22:12until he could prove
00:22:14this radical concept.
00:22:16He didn't stop there,
00:22:18he focused on an idea.
00:22:20If a straight line can
00:22:22lead to a point where the line
00:22:24is curved,
00:22:26at that time,
00:22:28according to his theory,
00:22:30the line of light
00:22:32will actually appear to bend.
00:22:34What could have enough
00:22:36gravitational force
00:22:38to bend the straight line?
00:22:40Well, it's the sun.
00:22:44300 times bigger than the sun.
00:22:46The line is the most
00:22:48convincing object
00:22:50for Einstein's experiment.
00:22:52But how can someone
00:22:54see a straight line from the line?
00:22:56He said that the straight line
00:22:58from a very long line
00:23:00passing through the line
00:23:02of gravitational force
00:23:04will always bend.
00:23:06But even if Einstein
00:23:08was right,
00:23:10he couldn't have ever
00:23:12seen anything like that
00:23:14because the straight line
00:23:16is very straight.
00:23:18When the straight line bends,
00:23:20we try to see what
00:23:22the straight line has
00:23:24without the bend of the line.
00:23:26That only happens
00:23:28during an eclipse
00:23:30because this is the bend
00:23:32that is formed by the sun
00:23:34and in a way,
00:23:36it is the face of the universe.
00:23:38Imagine when the bend
00:23:40happens here,
00:23:42and you are behind it,
00:23:44and the lines of the straight line
00:23:46that are straight
00:23:48will bend in this way.
00:23:50For their purpose,
00:23:52they bend
00:23:54as if they were
00:23:56bent by a force of gravity.
00:23:58Nobody actually
00:24:00wants to believe
00:24:02that this is true
00:24:04until somebody
00:24:06can prove it
00:24:08by writing a picture.
00:24:10So we would like to
00:24:12direct astrophysicists
00:24:14and astronomers,
00:24:16our lab is the whole universe.
00:24:18In 1912,
00:24:20Einstein believed
00:24:22that he could prove
00:24:24his theory very debatable.
00:24:26He published this prediction
00:24:28that would shock
00:24:30an entire universe.
00:24:32He took all the astronomers
00:24:34and went to see an eclipse
00:24:36and did the same thing.
00:24:42Nothing happened.
00:24:44They were not ready
00:24:46to do this test,
00:24:48but they did it anyway.
00:24:50He, as you say,
00:24:52proved that astronomers
00:24:54have a lot of work to do
00:24:56and can't do
00:24:58what you ask them to do
00:25:00even if this man
00:25:02was Einstein.
00:25:04It's a frustrating ritual
00:25:06and a step for Einstein,
00:25:08but at the peak of his research
00:25:10in Berlin,
00:25:12an assistant is ready
00:25:14to go to the end of the world
00:25:16for Einstein.
00:25:18His name is
00:25:20Erwin Findley Freundlich.
00:25:22He was a young man
00:25:24who wanted to make his dream come true.
00:25:26He thought,
00:25:28this is my chance,
00:25:30it's something new,
00:25:32amazing,
00:25:34and I can be part of it.
00:25:36I've seen the letters
00:25:38written by Einstein
00:25:40to astronomers
00:25:42asking for hope.
00:25:44This is a sign
00:25:46that their hope
00:25:48to prove his theory
00:25:50is worth everything for him
00:25:52because it needs him.
00:25:56Einstein finds out
00:25:58from a shock of his
00:26:00that Erwin is going to marry
00:26:02his wife Katia
00:26:04and that they will be
00:26:06married on the Alps.
00:26:08When he takes this letter,
00:26:10Einstein says,
00:26:12go to Zurich and meet her.
00:26:14Freundlich goes to Zurich
00:26:16with his partner
00:26:18and he can read the letter
00:26:20to make Einstein
00:26:22stand out like a star.
00:26:24He's standing out like a star
00:26:26in a famous Einstein exhibition
00:26:28in Berlin.
00:26:30He's standing out like a star
00:26:32in a famous Einstein exhibition
00:26:34in Berlin.
00:26:36They all animate each other.
00:26:38They whistle the train
00:26:40and they go to Frauenfeld nearby,
00:26:42it's a suburb.
00:26:44To their surprise,
00:26:46they find themselves in an auditorium
00:26:48listening to Einstein.
00:26:50And in the middle of Einstein's lecture,
00:26:52to prove his theory,
00:26:54we need an experiment
00:26:56in the moment when the eclipse happens
00:26:58and the person who's going to do this
00:27:00is one of them.
00:27:02His name is Erwin Freundlich.
00:27:04At this moment,
00:27:06Freundlich looks at you
00:27:08and identifies you.
00:27:10Einstein's reaction
00:27:12to seeing Freundlich
00:27:14in a debate on Z
00:27:16for his new theory of relativity
00:27:18and his partnership
00:27:20to see the planets he has created.
00:27:22The problem of the diurnal eclipse
00:27:24is that you can see it
00:27:26in a small part of the Earth
00:27:28because the Earth's surface
00:27:30is not visible to the eye
00:27:32and you can see it everywhere.
00:27:38They get these tapes
00:27:40and they come to the conclusion
00:27:42that the Earth's eclipse
00:27:44will happen in Crimea,
00:27:46in Russian territory,
00:27:48on August 21, 1914.
00:27:52Freundlich directs his bosses
00:27:54by saying,
00:27:56Russian-Latvian law.
00:27:58I will work with Einstein
00:28:00and the experiment will be financed by him.
00:28:02But all his bosses said
00:28:04was, in no way,
00:28:06I simply refuse.
00:28:08Einstein is a great scientist.
00:28:10After this refusal,
00:28:12Freundlich writes the director
00:28:14of the Lick Observatory,
00:28:16which is located in San Jose, California.
00:28:18It was the largest observatory
00:28:20in the history of American astronomy.
00:28:24It was a community
00:28:26that lived in the mountains
00:28:28and all of them had their own families,
00:28:30women, children,
00:28:32and it was up to others
00:28:34to take care of them.
00:28:36For many years,
00:28:38it was a world.
00:28:40But most importantly,
00:28:42William Wallace Campbell,
00:28:44a pioneer of eclipse photography,
00:28:46was born in that country.
00:28:48In the 19th century,
00:28:50the eclipses were mostly
00:28:52made by astronomers
00:28:54who made only visual observations.
00:28:56They said,
00:28:58after this,
00:29:00after that,
00:29:02I will visualize another diagram.
00:29:04But if people do not agree
00:29:06with what really happened,
00:29:08they can do more than this.
00:29:10Campbell was an expert in this technique.
00:29:12Freundlich wrote a private letter
00:29:14to Campbell, saying,
00:29:16there will be an eclipse in 1914.
00:29:18Why don't you come to Russia
00:29:20and let's stop this eclipse?
00:29:22There is a close communication
00:29:24between Campbell and Freundlich
00:29:26through the Californian astronomer
00:29:28and his assistant Gabriele,
00:29:30who does everything
00:29:32against his boss's wishes.
00:29:34They will be the first
00:29:36who can confirm
00:29:38or deny the theory
00:29:40of Einstein's gravity.
00:29:42This was a very impressive
00:29:44observation.
00:29:46Campbell gives you
00:29:48a very good opportunity
00:29:50to make an observation
00:29:52about the Milky Way and America.
00:29:54He says, I'm going to do this.
00:29:56He says, I'm a visionary
00:29:58and I'm the one to crack it.
00:30:00Meanwhile,
00:30:02his mentor, Max Planck,
00:30:04took a lecture
00:30:06from the German scholar
00:30:08Wilhelm II.
00:30:10He asked Planck
00:30:12to create a new institution
00:30:14in Berlin.
00:30:16Planck recommends
00:30:18Einstein to him,
00:30:20Albert Einstein.
00:30:22He said, if we send Einstein
00:30:24to this place,
00:30:26people will understand
00:30:28what really happened in Berlin.
00:30:30In 1913,
00:30:32Max Planck and Walter Nantz
00:30:34arrived at the train station
00:30:36in Zurich.
00:30:38A German chemist
00:30:40of the same name.
00:30:42This is the person
00:30:44who will be able
00:30:46to convince Einstein
00:30:48to make his decision
00:30:50in Germany.
00:30:52The two middle-aged guys
00:30:54went to Einstein's request.
00:30:56It was so different.
00:30:58Max Planck was always
00:31:00an irregular man.
00:31:02He was formal.
00:31:04The other guys
00:31:06went to Einstein,
00:31:08who refused to create
00:31:10the flocks.
00:31:12He wore old shoes
00:31:14and especially
00:31:16he didn't wear socks.
00:31:18They made him an offer
00:31:20to resist Albert.
00:31:22He would become a professor
00:31:24at the University of Berlin.
00:31:26It was Max Planck.
00:31:28He was the professor
00:31:30of physics at that time.
00:31:32He said, we want you.
00:31:34Einstein did not answer
00:31:36the offer.
00:31:38Einstein did not answer
00:31:40the offer.
00:31:42He said, we want you.
00:31:44Einstein did not answer
00:31:46the offer.
00:31:48Einstein said, I'll meet you
00:31:50at the train station
00:31:52in Zurich.
00:31:54He said, I'll meet you
00:31:56at the train station
00:31:58when you say.
00:32:00And I'll be carrying a bag
00:32:02of flowers.
00:32:04And if the flowers
00:32:06are bad,
00:32:08I'll be carrying you
00:32:10to Berlin.
00:32:12And if the flowers
00:32:14are bad,
00:32:16I'll be carrying you
00:32:18to Berlin.
00:32:20I think Einstein
00:32:22had a difficult problem
00:32:24when he had to make a decision
00:32:26or solve a problem.
00:32:28He had a difficult problem
00:32:30to solve.
00:32:32Einstein.
00:32:34Zurich was a good place
00:32:36to live.
00:32:38There were many germs
00:32:40that he had killed.
00:32:42It was not easy
00:32:44to leave that place.
00:32:46His wife did not want
00:32:48to leave Zurich.
00:32:51It was Elsa
00:32:53writing him a postcard
00:32:55saying that she was
00:32:57going to leave
00:32:59Zurich with all these emotions.
00:33:04Planck and Einstein
00:33:06are at the train station
00:33:08and Einstein is there.
00:33:11It was a dramatic moment
00:33:13in his life.
00:33:15He was carrying the flowers
00:33:17in his arms,
00:33:19and they look
00:33:21and the flower is red.
00:33:24Einstein said,
00:33:26Gentlemen,
00:33:28I'll go to Germany.
00:33:30I'll go to Germany.
00:33:32I'll go to Germany.
00:33:34I'll go to Germany.
00:33:40By April 1914,
00:33:42Einstein's dream
00:33:44had come true.
00:33:46The eclipse was very close
00:33:48to the date of the
00:33:50General Theory of Relativity.
00:33:52For this to happen,
00:33:54it took four months.
00:33:56At the same time,
00:33:58Einstein went to Berlin
00:34:00to join the group
00:34:02of the Kaiser Wilhelm Institute.
00:34:04It was a group
00:34:06of scientists
00:34:08working on the
00:34:10Fritz Haber Institute.
00:34:13Fritz Haber was
00:34:15one of the most famous
00:34:17scientists of 1940-1940.
00:34:19He was a hero.
00:34:21He was a process
00:34:23which can be used
00:34:25for the development
00:34:27of an artificial fertilization
00:34:29by which millions
00:34:31can grow.
00:34:33He saw it as a hero.
00:34:36Haber and his family
00:34:38welcomed the woman
00:34:40of Albert, Mileva Maric,
00:34:42while she was asking
00:34:44for an apartment
00:34:46Einstein was a very honest man.
00:34:48The way he would tell his wife about the marriage he had with Elsa,
00:34:51that stuck with him even more.
00:34:53Not surprisingly,
00:34:55suicide has offered you a unique way of life.
00:34:58It has offered you a way of life to married life.
00:35:01Einstein gives Milleva an ultimatum.
00:35:04If you want to stay married to me,
00:35:07you have to understand the rules of the game.
00:35:10If you want to stay married to me,
00:35:12you have to understand the rules of the game.
00:35:15I don't have any other choice.
00:35:17I have to be girly in bed,
00:35:19telling me only when I need to talk
00:35:21and we're not even going to have any other conversation,
00:35:24but she doesn't want to sign this contract.
00:35:31She goes and stays at the house of Haberti's and his ex-wife.
00:35:35In those times, Haberti was as tender as they were.
00:35:38He's trying to get them to keep their marriage.
00:35:41He's the kind of person
00:35:43that they can regulate the lives of other people.
00:35:47But Habert's decision to fight the war in Alberta was a true decision.
00:35:53Their decision to fight it was not going to happen.
00:35:58Lacking the ability to pay two houses, Einstein proposes to Milleve a solution,
00:36:03which shows the self-confidence of his students.
00:36:06He offers her a solution by saying,
00:36:08that sooner or later my theory will become a Nobel Prize.
00:36:12And if you get a divorce, I will be ready to fight.
00:36:16That was a big deal.
00:36:19Milleve will do her best and can say it in the jury along with the children.
00:36:23She assures them that she will fight for the Nobel Prize.
00:36:27Milleve was not sure.
00:36:29But even she was a scientist who can do her homework.
00:36:34She consults with Fritz Habert and decides to take the bet.
00:36:42Milleve takes two votes and Albert consults her at the train station along with Fritz Habert.
00:36:50Einstein has to consult and negotiate with his students.
00:36:56They start to fight.
00:36:58Albert had never fought before.
00:37:01It was a very difficult moment and painful for them.
00:37:05Albert was a man who supported and encouraged them to go through these difficult moments.
00:37:09Einstein had decided to come to his children with the hope of this meeting.
00:37:15He did not know that such a thing would happen in reality.
00:37:19He was invited by William Campbell and Erwin Freundlich,
00:37:22who will ensure the photos of the eclipse full of light,
00:37:25while giving them the opportunity to look at it as they see it.
00:37:29Before talking to Milleve and her friends,
00:37:31Einstein had another meeting at the train station in Berlin.
00:37:35He met Freundlich along with two of his students, ready to leave Berlin.
00:37:41Einstein came to him and was very emotional.
00:37:45Freundlich and two of his colleagues took with them four astronomical cameras
00:37:49as well as other objects related to the eclipse.
00:37:54Freundlich and Campbell hope to achieve their maximum
00:37:57by exploiting the good mood and by building camps in different places.
00:38:01Freundlich decides to go to the Crimea,
00:38:04while Campbell decides to go to Kiev.
00:38:06They were the second to decide,
00:38:08without any talks or promises about the beginning of the war.
00:38:14Then the worst happened.
00:38:15On the 28th of January 1914,
00:38:18Gali, a former Austrian, is assassinated in an attack.
00:38:22The German Kaiser destroys the Russian war
00:38:24and the expedition of the eclipse of Einstein is in jeopardy.
00:38:29Einstein had no idea what was going to happen.
00:38:32He had no idea what was going to happen.
00:38:37And then, in the middle of the war,
00:38:39the war begins in the camp of Freundlich.
00:38:44Freundlich suddenly sees some Russian officers
00:38:47who talk to him and ask him to show them his letters.
00:38:54The Russians talk to him for the first time
00:38:56and realize that they are Germans with telescopes in their hands.
00:38:59They start tearing down their houses.
00:39:02I have a house in my house.
00:39:04I have an eclipse to protect it.
00:39:06These are our houses.
00:39:08Your country is at the brink of war.
00:39:10I have no idea what you are saying.
00:39:12They arrested him once without asking him anything.
00:39:16They considered him a spy.
00:39:18Freundlich, you are a war criminal.
00:39:21What?
00:39:23An American, like Campbell, is neutral.
00:39:27The Russians are trying to continue the war of the eclipse.
00:39:36They had come all this way,
00:39:38they had spent a lot of money,
00:39:40they did not take money from the beginning of the war.
00:39:43And in the end, their plans were destroyed by many missiles.
00:39:48A total failure.
00:39:53Not only does Campbell agree with the nature of their photographs,
00:39:56but he is also attracted to the bad lines of his country.
00:39:59He was not arrested because he is an American,
00:40:02but he is seen in his country as a human being.
00:40:06Campbell hopes that he will be allowed to stay in his house
00:40:10until he has no more problems.
00:40:14Einstein, who was born in Berlin,
00:40:17destroyed the Earth.
00:40:19Expedita agrees.
00:40:21Freundlich and his squad spent seven months
00:40:24to cover up the war in Russia.
00:40:26For Einstein, this was a real disaster.
00:40:29Proof to prove his theory of relativity
00:40:32is the discovery of Dewart.
00:40:45The outbreak of the first world war
00:40:48and the destruction of the full-diamond eclipse
00:40:51as well as the risk of increasing evidences
00:40:54that can confirm the theory of relativity
00:40:57for which Einstein had been working for a year.
00:41:00The war destroyed the communication
00:41:02that existed between scientists.
00:41:04The spread of information and ideas
00:41:06continued around them.
00:41:08The ties that existed between them.
00:41:11After America was destroyed in the war,
00:41:14William Campbell looked at the sky
00:41:17and appreciated the destruction of the eclipse
00:41:20as much as his German colleagues
00:41:22considered it as an enemy.
00:41:28In Berlin, the whole atmosphere changed.
00:41:31You could see the whole population
00:41:33of the country,
00:41:34which showed the greatest patriotism,
00:41:37for this reason it was a bad luck.
00:41:42All of Einstein's memories
00:41:44about the city where he would live
00:41:47disappeared.
00:41:49Hundreds of thousands of young Germans
00:41:52joined enthusiastically.
00:41:55His best colleagues, Planck and Hubbard,
00:41:58were also enthusiastic about the beginning of the war.
00:42:01Fritz Hubbard converted to Christianity.
00:42:04One of the greatest moments of his career
00:42:07was when he joined the German army.
00:42:10Something unheard of
00:42:12for a Jew to be converted to Christianity.
00:42:16Einstein considered it something like a miracle.
00:42:20Albert said,
00:42:21I am a chemist and I understand
00:42:23the chlorine formula very well.
00:42:25I know that chlorine gas is a harmful gas
00:42:28and that it can be used as a dangerous weapon.
00:42:31Hubbard thought that the use of this weapon
00:42:34would make it possible for the war
00:42:36to end as soon as possible.
00:42:39The Hubbard Institute in Germany
00:42:41was in the process of producing gas weapons
00:42:44to be used on the front line.
00:42:46Einstein was a member of the Hubbard Institute.
00:42:51Einstein was disappointed
00:42:54when he saw that his colleagues
00:42:56were trying to produce substances or weapons
00:42:59to be used against humanity.
00:43:03Hubbard was the first scientist
00:43:06who was able to produce weapons
00:43:08while using science.
00:43:10The mysterious weapon of Hubbard,
00:43:12the Helmholtz gas,
00:43:14was tested in the battles
00:43:16that took place in Belgium.
00:43:20Hubbard was there.
00:43:23He said,
00:43:24I can use a weapon.
00:43:26This was like a gun
00:43:29that was fired in the battlefield.
00:43:33This was the first time
00:43:35that something like that happened.
00:43:38Troops had seen it,
00:43:40but the effect was devastating.
00:43:43The soldiers were thrown into the air
00:43:46even though they were in the canals.
00:43:51Hubbard saw thousands of soldiers
00:43:54coming out of the trenches.
00:43:57Their lungs began to break
00:44:00and their bodies began to rot.
00:44:03He tried to push them,
00:44:05but in the end,
00:44:07they were killed.
00:44:09Hubbard Einstein takes a look
00:44:12at his closest friend,
00:44:14T.A. Samur.
00:44:16He says,
00:44:17this is something human.
00:44:19He writes a letter to T.A.
00:44:21who lives in Switzerland
00:44:23and says that all scientific
00:44:25or technological developments
00:44:27are more dangerous
00:44:29than a human being.
00:44:32It's amazing to think
00:44:34that he was Einstein's son
00:44:36for such a long time
00:44:38and still leads our security
00:44:40in different planets.
00:44:42The war created a great piquancy
00:44:44for Einstein,
00:44:45because in this personal aspect,
00:44:47Einstein had a great respect
00:44:49and a great admiration
00:44:51for his colleague,
00:44:53but he couldn't tolerate
00:44:55his friend when he spoke
00:44:57to him.
00:44:58He found the famous document
00:45:00titled The Manifest of 1903,
00:45:02signed by the 1903 German
00:45:04Academy of Sciences,
00:45:06showing the people
00:45:08living in Berlin
00:45:10whom Einstein respected a lot,
00:45:12Hubbard and Max Planck.
00:45:18The document says that
00:45:20German intellectuals and scientists
00:45:22will instill in German soldiers
00:45:24the benefit of war
00:45:26and that this was the moment
00:45:28when Einstein realized
00:45:30that even for him,
00:45:32physics was something different
00:45:34and that he had to face
00:45:36a lot of personal risk
00:45:38to defend.
00:45:41He actually tried
00:45:43to write another document
00:45:45by German physicists
00:45:47who say no,
00:45:49because in reality
00:45:51there was something else
00:45:53that was published,
00:45:55it was published,
00:45:57it fails.
00:46:05He becomes a patron
00:46:07of this war
00:46:09and Einstein is isolated,
00:46:11he is being rejected
00:46:13by his colleagues,
00:46:15he is being rejected
00:46:17by his friends,
00:46:19he is being rejected
00:46:22by his colleagues.
00:46:24This isolation is a positive
00:46:26indication of Einstein
00:46:28because he says that he was
00:46:30born to solve the problem
00:46:32of relativity,
00:46:34he focuses on mathematical equations.
00:46:36One day he was looking at
00:46:38the logarithm he had made
00:46:40for the right hand side
00:46:42while he was not writing
00:46:44the right hand side.
00:46:46At that moment he realized
00:46:48that his logarithms
00:46:50were not the same
00:46:52as the right hand side.
00:46:54This discovery would have
00:46:56dispelled his theory.
00:46:58It is an amazing thing,
00:47:00but it is a positive discovery.
00:47:02For three years,
00:47:04Einstein had been
00:47:06an astronomer
00:47:08and photographing an eclipse
00:47:10to prove an equation
00:47:12which he had just discovered.
00:47:14Einstein had always been
00:47:16a big fan of the eclipse,
00:47:18but the war for it was
00:47:20getting more and more
00:47:22and physicists had to leave
00:47:24their studies.
00:47:26He had a little apartment
00:47:28and most of his studies
00:47:30were in that area.
00:47:32Sometimes he could
00:47:34even take advantage
00:47:36of the eclipse.
00:47:38Albert played the violin
00:47:40and he hoped that Mozart's
00:47:42music could bring
00:47:44harmony to the universe.
00:47:46Einstein had a tendency
00:47:48to focus on the unthinkable.
00:47:50People who knew him
00:47:52said that Einstein could
00:47:54focus on solving a problem
00:47:56day after day,
00:47:58hours after hours,
00:48:00for days, even years.
00:48:02In his office,
00:48:04he had a lot of mathematical
00:48:06equations.
00:48:08He would think about them,
00:48:10revise them,
00:48:12understand them,
00:48:14science has done this
00:48:16with a little bit of luck.
00:48:18We have several objects.
00:48:20As long as we can find
00:48:22a solution, we have
00:48:24one solution.
00:48:26We have plenty of them.
00:48:28That is the force
00:48:30of the problem.
00:48:32There are no mistakes
00:48:34necessary to get the right answer.
00:48:36It was never a moment
00:48:38when he said,
00:48:40no, I'm not going to be able
00:48:42to solve this problem.
00:48:44It's not going to happen.
00:48:46And that is the reason
00:48:48for the eclipse.
00:48:50For Einstein,
00:48:52the eclipse is a noble one.
00:48:54It's a eclipse that Einstein
00:48:56had promised for thousands
00:48:58of years. In 1915,
00:49:00Einstein was asked to present
00:49:02his theory of relativity
00:49:04in one of the most prestigious
00:49:06German stars forums.
00:49:08He accepted.
00:49:10After nearly a decade of
00:49:12scientific research,
00:49:14Einstein's theory still had
00:49:16work to do.
00:49:18And with the logarithms
00:49:20that he had created,
00:49:22and if these logarithms
00:49:24will continue to be created
00:49:26for a long time,
00:49:28his theory will never
00:49:30come true.
00:49:32Then he decided
00:49:34to write a letter
00:49:36to a German scientist
00:49:38from the most prestigious
00:49:40groups of scientists
00:49:42in Germany,
00:49:44the Freshman Academy.
00:49:46It was a very important place
00:49:48as an attempt to convince
00:49:50some of Germany's
00:49:52leading thinkers
00:49:54to act.
00:49:56Einstein was one of the
00:49:58most advanced scientists
00:50:00and it was as if the war
00:50:02had never started.
00:50:04The problem of Einstein
00:50:07In the fall of 1915,
00:50:09Einstein was not
00:50:11dealing with anything else,
00:50:13but was completely focused
00:50:15on the idea of this
00:50:17enigma that had been
00:50:19around him for more
00:50:21than eight years.
00:50:23Einstein is trying to
00:50:25present the explanation
00:50:27of how the universe was
00:50:29formed, and to do this,
00:50:31he works all night.
00:50:33If you look closely,
00:50:35you can see that
00:50:37his study was very complicated,
00:50:39that he was not dealing
00:50:41with a mathematician who
00:50:43writes in letters
00:50:45exact mathematical formulas.
00:50:47He cancels everything
00:50:49and says nonsense.
00:50:51So his idea for which
00:50:53he worked so much
00:50:55throws it away with disgust.
00:50:57It can be read that
00:50:59at the moment when
00:51:01his mathematical ideas
00:51:03and his equations are
00:51:05at the end of the line,
00:51:07he decides to go to
00:51:09the University of Gottingen
00:51:11in Germany.
00:51:13Einstein is up at the table
00:51:15writing his equations
00:51:17and tries to solve
00:51:19his problem.
00:51:21In the audience,
00:51:23the greatest mathematician
00:51:25of all time,
00:51:27David Hilbert,
00:51:29sits there and he thinks
00:51:31and he says, I can solve
00:51:33this problem, I can do
00:51:35better than Einstein.
00:51:37And why he can
00:51:39sit there and do paranoia
00:51:41is the moment when he
00:51:43comes up with a good idea
00:51:45and he thinks.
00:51:47If I've had this good idea,
00:51:49then probably even someone
00:51:51else could have the same
00:51:53idea. It's a very strange
00:51:55understanding.
00:51:57Einstein comes to Berlin
00:51:59and he tries to solve
00:52:01his own problem.
00:52:03Hilbert tries to solve
00:52:05this problem and to
00:52:07compete with Einstein
00:52:09for the greatest relativity.
00:52:11He was one of the
00:52:13greatest mathematicians
00:52:15of his time.
00:52:17Hilbert,
00:52:19the person you are
00:52:21in this case,
00:52:23tries to deceive
00:52:25Hilbert and starts
00:52:27telling him,
00:52:29Einstein,
00:52:31Einstein,
00:52:33Einstein,
00:52:35Einstein,
00:52:37Einstein,
00:52:39Einstein,
00:52:41Einstein,
00:52:43Einstein,
00:52:45Einstein,
00:52:47Einstein,
00:52:49Einstein,
00:52:51Einstein,
00:52:53Einstein,
00:52:55Einstein,
00:52:59Einstein,
00:53:03Einstein,
00:53:05Einstein,
00:53:09Einstein,
00:53:13How long
00:53:15do you wait
00:53:17to write the
00:53:19mathematical results
00:53:21and to publish them?
00:53:23Hilbert should be more aware of his own risks.
00:53:25He should think that Hilbert will take all the credit for his work
00:53:29if he is able to publish the fundamental theory of relativity before him.
00:53:32He must understand that he discovered points of his discoveries
00:53:37that lead to the same results.
00:53:39Einstein remembered that he had made a radical decision
00:53:43that he had made at the beginning of the year, in 1912,
00:53:47but he had made the decision,
00:53:48because he had been very surprised and did not realize it at the time.
00:53:51Unfamiliar, too. Inacceptable.
00:53:54But now, after he had tried out all the possible equations,
00:53:58he was ready to create an equation
00:54:00that he had invented three years earlier,
00:54:03considered and then discarded three years before.
00:54:07He realized that he had been deceived
00:54:09and that he should have taken more of those equations.
00:54:13He had had a lot of doubts about himself.
00:54:15That was a crucial moment for him.
00:54:18And he had the equation that he had invented,
00:54:22but he was very surprised and was curious
00:54:24about what would have been in the spring of 1912.
00:54:29It is not always a good thing
00:54:31when you understand that you have done something wrong.
00:54:33Sometimes it is something fantastic.
00:54:36Einstein's discovery was even more amazing
00:54:39when he realized that the answer to the other theory
00:54:41could be found in a room full of astronomers.
00:54:46Einstein discovered a mystery
00:54:48that could have been solved by the astronomers of his generation.
00:54:52Like Isaac Newton,
00:54:54the planet Mercury should move in this way,
00:54:57but its movements deviate from Newton's laws of movement.
00:55:02It was a pyramid,
00:55:04and its orbits were like petals of a flower.
00:55:11Einstein thought that his theory of relativity
00:55:14could explain the orbits of the planet Mercury,
00:55:17something that Newton's laws could not do.
00:55:20Einstein says,
00:55:22if it was Newton's invention,
00:55:24it was an invention of his own.
00:55:26It was his theory of relativity.
00:55:30He calculated this to explain all the experimental data.
00:55:35He calculated the orbits of Mercury
00:55:38and discovered that there was a perfect solution.
00:55:41He has hard facts about his space.
00:55:47He has hard facts about his theory.
00:55:50Oh God, the theory is exact.
00:55:53He was as confused as he could not decide
00:55:57if this was something big deal for Einstein.
00:56:02He finally got to the end of the equation
00:56:05that solved his problem.
00:56:07This was the same thing that David Hilbert did,
00:56:10he was like a man who could solve the first equation.
00:56:14Hilbert tells it very well at that moment.
00:56:17It is Einstein's theory.
00:56:19He has to get the merits.
00:56:21He is a visionary.
00:56:23The theory is Einstein's.
00:56:27On November 25, 1915,
00:56:31Einstein builds the second equation,
00:56:34which is considered the final equation for his theory of relativity.
00:56:38This is the moment when he will present the theory of gravity
00:56:41at the Prussian Academy.
00:56:45He goes to the academy and starts talking.
00:56:48His speech is not very long,
00:56:50there were some short sentences.
00:56:53He explains how the space and time
00:56:56determine the direction of the forces and energy,
00:56:59while energy and time tell him
00:57:02how the space and time have a look.
00:57:06Utterly different theories
00:57:08tell us how the universe
00:57:11has a look.
00:57:19Everyone is subject to the fact
00:57:21that a German man
00:57:23invented Newton's theory of gravity,
00:57:26because no one knows for sure
00:57:28what happened to it.
00:57:30There was no concrete proof to prove it.
00:57:33No one can understand Einstein.
00:57:35Einstein believes that in the end
00:57:37his theory was exact,
00:57:39but he was sure that this theory would be accepted
00:57:42only if he could prove it.
00:57:44The theory can not be proven
00:57:46without first taking a picture
00:57:48of a full eclipse.
00:57:56Einstein publishes the full theory
00:57:59of relativity
00:58:01in 1916
00:58:03together with the exact mathematical equation,
00:58:06but there was still a lot to do.
00:58:08He needed a picture of a full eclipse
00:58:11to prove his theory,
00:58:13but with the beginning of the war
00:58:15and the blockade imposed by Britain
00:58:17and the security of basic needs
00:58:19they were determined to ensure it.
00:58:21Berlin becomes an impoverished city
00:58:24where young people grow up more.
00:58:26In the middle of the war
00:58:28Einstein's parents become homeless.
00:58:31The reason for his poverty
00:58:33was that he was lazy and lazy.
00:58:35That was a big problem.
00:58:37He was really very lazy.
00:58:39He writes in his diary,
00:58:41I can't read, I can't speak.
00:58:43Albert is facing a crisis,
00:58:45both physically and mentally.
00:58:47Elsa prepares the eclipse
00:58:49and watches it.
00:58:51She brings Einstein to live with her.
00:58:54Well, Einstein's wife
00:58:56is in Elsa's arms.
00:58:58Unfortunately, his theory
00:59:00is rejected by the astronomers.
00:59:02One of the astronomers
00:59:04who will play an important role
00:59:06in the realization of his theory
00:59:08is Arthur Eddington,
00:59:10a Ken star,
00:59:12but also a star man
00:59:14who goes to the back row
00:59:16of the university.
00:59:18Sitting in the back row
00:59:20among many people
00:59:22is Eddington.
00:59:24He is one of the most
00:59:26respected minds in astronomy.
00:59:28The war has been a great
00:59:30inspiration for Eddington
00:59:32and his belief.
00:59:34The members of his society
00:59:36opposed the war,
00:59:38refused to take part in it.
00:59:40He was the last member
00:59:42who was still alive.
00:59:44The other members
00:59:46were alone in Vaisa.
00:59:48The men were always
00:59:50day after day,
00:59:53The anti-Germans
00:59:55had a lot of communication
00:59:57with the scientists.
00:59:59Eddington had no idea
01:00:01about Einstein's theory
01:00:03until the year 1906
01:00:05when he got a package
01:00:07from a Dutch friend.
01:00:09The astronomer William Dessiter
01:00:11took this package
01:00:13and it was a copy of Einstein's work
01:00:15which Dessiter had translated
01:00:17into English.
01:00:19He read it and realized
01:00:21that neither Dessiter
01:00:23nor a scientist in England
01:00:25knew about this discovery.
01:00:27He told Dessiter
01:00:29to tell me more about Einstein.
01:00:31He was surprised.
01:00:33Einstein did not agree with the war.
01:00:35In fact, he wrote a document
01:00:37against it and when Eddington
01:00:39heard this, he said
01:00:41this is something perfect.
01:00:43This is a very suspicious discovery
01:00:45and we have to do something
01:00:47about it.
01:00:49Eddington, the astronomer
01:00:51and Einstein were isolated
01:00:53because of their political beliefs.
01:00:55He wanted to deceive Einstein
01:00:57and to show the world
01:00:59that scientists can deceive
01:01:01other people regardless
01:01:03of their beliefs in the war.
01:01:05Eddington believed that
01:01:07the theory of relativity
01:01:09is a theory based on science.
01:01:11After Newton's theory,
01:01:13this theory was formulated
01:01:15by a German.
01:01:17He wanted to show the world
01:01:19and his colleagues
01:01:21that an Englishman
01:01:23would deceive a German.
01:01:25The expedition to photograph
01:01:27the eclipse was the best
01:01:29opportunity to prove this.
01:01:31Interplanetary forces
01:01:33cannot prevent the end
01:01:35of the war.
01:01:37The eclipse will take place
01:01:39at the end of 1918
01:01:41and will not be able
01:01:43to look at England
01:01:45or Washington
01:01:47in the back yard
01:01:49of the People's House
01:01:51that was the first
01:01:53to have this name,
01:01:55William Wallace Campbell.
01:01:57Another eclipse will take place
01:01:59in 1918,
01:02:01which was not very far
01:02:03from the end of the California War,
01:02:05in Washington,
01:02:07in his own words.
01:02:09If Campbell can photograph
01:02:11this eclipse successfully,
01:02:13then the war to develop
01:02:15cannot go anywhere else.
01:02:17Europeans cannot deceive
01:02:19their own people,
01:02:21so they have to do
01:02:23this work themselves.
01:02:25But Campbell also had a problem.
01:02:27He did not have his own country
01:02:29because those events
01:02:31were still blocked in Russia.
01:02:33Campbell and his state-of-the-art
01:02:35cameras were abandoned
01:02:37in Crimea in 1914
01:02:39when World War I began.
01:02:41The Lick Party members
01:02:43were forced to forgive
01:02:45the citizens of Doros II.
01:02:47Campbell had no choice
01:02:49but to take the risk.
01:02:51It was a total solar eclipse
01:02:53all to himself
01:02:55and such an opportunity
01:02:57could not come again.
01:02:59Campbell's squadron
01:03:01was also preparing
01:03:03a trip to Washington.
01:03:05It was close to the end
01:03:07of the war
01:03:09and it was close
01:03:11to his homeland
01:03:13and his family.
01:03:15Campbell's goal
01:03:17was to photograph the eclipse
01:03:19at the moment when it began
01:03:21to disappear from the sky
01:03:23but it was delayed
01:03:25by the end of 1918
01:03:27when the universe
01:03:29was not yet ready
01:03:31to reveal its secrets.
01:03:33The sky began to disappear
01:03:35from the sky
01:03:37at the time
01:03:39when the sun had to
01:03:41go down to the earth.
01:03:49Campbell began
01:03:51to photograph the spectacle
01:03:53that took place in the sky.
01:03:55Everything begins
01:03:57when we first come in contact
01:03:59with the sun and then
01:04:01the base of the sun.
01:04:03The sun becomes smaller
01:04:05and smaller until
01:04:07the moment when it totally
01:04:09disappears from the sky.
01:04:19That is the brightest
01:04:21view you can ever see.
01:04:23When the first eclipse
01:04:25took place for me,
01:04:27I was speechless.
01:04:29It was like jumping into
01:04:31the water.
01:04:33It's literally breathtaking.
01:04:35It's a gorgeous sight.
01:04:37It's just wow.
01:04:39It's the best experience
01:04:41I've ever had in my life.
01:04:47The New York Times
01:04:49published an article
01:04:51about the beginning
01:04:53of the eclipse
01:04:55and the title was
01:04:57Einstein's Theory.
01:04:59This was the first time
01:05:01I met Albert Einstein.
01:05:03Campbell used his most
01:05:05famous astronomer,
01:05:07Hubert D. Curtis,
01:05:09to analyze the photographs
01:05:11and to accept
01:05:13Einstein's theory.
01:05:15Looking in,
01:05:17you have to start
01:05:19with your right eye.
01:05:21It has to be measured
01:05:23from crosshairs in the eyepiece.
01:05:25Once that was done,
01:05:27the scales could be
01:05:29very precise,
01:05:31and from those numbers,
01:05:33it could be determined
01:05:35whether the eye
01:05:37appeared to change position
01:05:39or not.
01:05:41Einstein had predicted
01:05:43that an optical illusion
01:05:45would be created in the eyepiece
01:05:47making the assumption
01:05:49that the eye was curved.
01:05:51Einstein predicted a curvature
01:05:53not more than a millimeter.
01:05:55Unlike most theories
01:05:57of other scientists,
01:05:59Einstein's theory
01:06:01makes predictions
01:06:03very precisely.
01:06:05It has to be measured
01:06:07in this way,
01:06:09and if it's not,
01:06:11then all the other
01:06:13theories have to be discarded.
01:06:15Extremely precise
01:06:17measurements.
01:06:19There was no wiggle room
01:06:21in Einstein's theory
01:06:23of relativity.
01:06:25Scientists can create theories
01:06:27to make predictions,
01:06:29to measure,
01:06:31to make inferences,
01:06:33and so on,
01:06:35according to their theories.
01:06:37But if something like that
01:06:39doesn't come true,
01:06:41in the end,
01:06:43they can't say,
01:06:45usually,
01:06:47you have to make some
01:06:49assumptions in your theory.
01:06:51As you can see,
01:06:53in these images,
01:06:55these are assumptions
01:06:57with which Curtis is able
01:06:59to make his predictions.
01:07:01There are many assumptions,
01:07:03some of which are also true.
01:07:05You only need one experiment,
01:07:07and if the experiment shows
01:07:09that even a single aspect
01:07:11of the theory was not exact,
01:07:13then you have to start
01:07:15from the beginning.
01:07:17Curtis looks at the stars.
01:07:19Curtis looks at the stars
01:07:21and sees that everything is going
01:07:23as it should.
01:07:25Everything is going in its normal direction.
01:07:27Everything is going in its own direction.
01:07:29Einstein was wrong.
01:07:31Campbell doesn't want to
01:07:33ruin his reputation
01:07:35without precise measurements.
01:07:37Nobody wants to make a prediction
01:07:39without knowing everything
01:07:41beforehand.
01:07:43The best tactic is to wait
01:07:45until you are completely sure
01:07:47of your predictions.
01:07:49Campbell asks Curtis
01:07:51to look again at his predictions.
01:07:53As Curtis works on his predictions
01:07:55all the time,
01:07:57Europe is in chaos.
01:08:01The order of Europe
01:08:03has changed.
01:08:05We have seen three changes
01:08:07in the last few years.
01:08:09In 1918,
01:08:11Kaiser Wilhelm leaves
01:08:13the throne.
01:08:15Einstein writes in his book
01:08:17that Germany is not dying
01:08:19because of the revolution.
01:08:21At this time,
01:08:23the German star Einstein
01:08:25did not want to leave the country,
01:08:27but Eddington wants to.
01:08:29Einstein believes that Eddington
01:08:31will go to Africa
01:08:33to take a video
01:08:35which will take place
01:08:37on May 29, 1919.
01:08:39Eddington leaves Cambridge.
01:08:41The young students
01:08:43enter the country,
01:08:45but Eddington is not there.
01:08:47He does not believe anyone.
01:08:49He will go alone
01:08:51on a lonely adventure.
01:08:53Eddington believes
01:08:55that Einstein is back
01:08:57and he hopes to speak
01:08:59with photos
01:09:01which can confirm
01:09:03Einstein's theory.
01:09:05Meanwhile, in California,
01:09:07astronomer William Campbell
01:09:09is preparing to publish
01:09:11his results
01:09:13on different continents.
01:09:19In February 1919,
01:09:21in California,
01:09:23William Campbell
01:09:25publishes his photos
01:09:27which appear
01:09:29to show that
01:09:31Einstein's theory is true.
01:09:33Campbell has an opponent,
01:09:35the British astronomer
01:09:37Arthur Eddington,
01:09:39who goes to Africa
01:09:42Eddington leaves Britain
01:09:44and heads straight south.
01:09:46He was in his late thirties
01:09:48and this trip was not
01:09:50a pleasant place to be.
01:09:58In May 1919,
01:10:00after 10 years of
01:10:02staying in debt,
01:10:04Eddington and his assistant
01:10:06die in a small island
01:10:08in Africa.
01:10:11Malaria and malaria
01:10:13were a big problem
01:10:15in that country.
01:10:17They spend a month
01:10:19to build a telescope
01:10:21in the middle of the jungle.
01:10:23The day of the eclipse
01:10:25comes with him and his wife.
01:10:31A phenomenal discovery,
01:10:33but then suddenly,
01:10:35in the middle of a desert area,
01:10:37he sees a woman
01:10:39taking photographs, right then.
01:10:41They just start the device,
01:10:43the camera starts to rotate
01:10:45and they place the photographic plate
01:10:47at the end of the telescope.
01:10:49Everything has to go
01:10:51in the middle of the desert
01:10:53and be done in a perfect way.
01:10:55Wait, wait, we have to take
01:10:57another photo,
01:10:59place it in its place,
01:11:01wait, there is another photo
01:11:03and you can take as many
01:11:05photos as you can.
01:11:07It is very important
01:11:09that everything is done
01:11:11in the best possible way.
01:11:13Otherwise, your entire career
01:11:15will be ruined.
01:11:17There are poets,
01:11:19but they are not interested
01:11:21in writing.
01:11:23He was totally focused
01:11:25on photographing
01:11:27the sun there by the sun,
01:11:29raising the sun.
01:11:31He was so focused on
01:11:33taking the telescope
01:11:35that he had to trust
01:11:37that something was going
01:11:39to happen in his feet.
01:11:41Like Campbell before him,
01:11:43Eddington is going to
01:11:45be surprised by the results.
01:11:47He quickly discovered
01:11:49that most of the pictures
01:11:51he had taken
01:11:53were all the stars
01:11:55on every single photograph.
01:11:57But the very last picture
01:11:59was the stars that could
01:12:01encourage someone
01:12:03to take a step forward
01:12:05by measuring the stars
01:12:07with a micrometer.
01:12:09This theory is not very famous,
01:12:11but look at him
01:12:13as his photographic feet.
01:12:15His discipline is phenomenal.
01:12:17Now to make these measurements
01:12:19is very difficult.
01:12:21We have the stress
01:12:23of the atmosphere
01:12:25and the heat
01:12:27that comes from the
01:12:29large universe
01:12:31It's the smudge.
01:12:33It's a smudge.
01:12:35To quickly become a teacher.
01:12:37It's the smudge.
01:12:39It's a smudge.
01:12:41To quickly become a teacher.
01:12:43Einstein was reading
01:12:45very actively
01:12:47and he was reading
01:12:49a lot of books
01:12:51and he was reading
01:12:53a lot of books
01:12:55and he was reading
01:12:57a lot of books
01:12:59and he was reading
01:13:01a lot of books
01:13:03and he was reading
01:13:05a lot of books
01:13:07and he was reading
01:13:09a lot of books
01:13:11and he was reading
01:13:13a lot of books
01:13:15and things had come
01:13:17and leave
01:13:19things were like
01:13:21this
01:13:23and we were cr�h
01:13:25We turned our backs
01:13:27So, Campbell was the first one to cry, and I know he was very nervous, because with these results, his reputation was at stake.
01:13:36The angst he felt in those moments must have been even greater, because he was going to cry in front of all his colleagues.
01:13:43It's that moment when you're trying to help your colleagues.
01:13:48I don't think you ever think you're ready in a situation like that.
01:13:52And then finally, Campbell presented his results.
01:13:56He said that Einstein was wrong, and the results of the liquid equation show that his results are wrong.
01:14:03At this point, we're going to take another step, and we're going to look at the same data, which comes from the dictionary.
01:14:08The results that came from him show the opposite.
01:14:11I wouldn't be able to say that Einstein was right, because his results hadn't been finalized yet.
01:14:18But here we have this special moment, where Campbell says that Einstein was wrong,
01:14:23and the Briton who said, I don't know yet, he might be right.
01:14:28Campbell started to get really nervous in those moments.
01:14:33Campbell sent an urgent message to his colleagues in America, who were ready to give a negative report,
01:14:40because he had photos of the eclipse.
01:14:42It was a letter that contained only five words.
01:14:45People come from all over England to see what's going to happen.
01:14:50Everybody is anxious to see the results of the eclipse.
01:14:54But three days before the eclipse, we were in London.
01:14:58We were in London for the first time.
01:15:00We were in London for the first time.
01:15:02We were in London for the first time.
01:15:04We were in London for the first time.

01:15:46We were in London for the first time.

01:18:02But despite the obeisance of the public,
01:18:04The scientists still have their doubts.
01:18:06The people were making a mistake,
01:18:08But they mistakenly equated Einstein's famous theory
01:18:10But they mistakenly equated Einstein's famous theory
01:18:12With this particular theory,
01:18:14As it was very far from what happened.
01:18:16As it was very far from what happened.
01:18:22In the New York Times this famous journalist
01:18:24Times reads about Agee chirgic
01:18:26Times reads about Agee chirgic
01:18:28Who is this famous scientist?
01:18:30Most British people, and the Americans in general,
01:18:34were really eager to suddenly become friends with Germany and make peace with them.
01:18:41So many people were saying,
01:18:42Oh, Eddington was trying to promote the evil brotherhood,
01:18:48he was so proud that he was being absolutely biased.
01:18:55He's being criticized for fudging the figures.
01:18:59The photographs taken by two different people, Eddington and Campbell, show different results.
01:19:05It was necessary to do another experiment.
01:19:08Einstein, who was trying to verify his theory that at the time he represented for the first time in 1907,
01:19:15or Campbell, who was trying to prove that since 1911, there were many others to prove the final result of this theory.
01:19:23At the time, he was not just a scientific theorist, but he also spoke for his international and personal reputation.
01:19:32Campbell checks the paper and sees that the first eclipse to be observed will take place in Australia in 1922,
01:19:39after more than two years, and that at the time he would not be the only person to go to photograph it.
01:19:45It's 1921 and Einstein, the 22-year-old, is at this time a scientist genius.
01:19:58He did, as it were, a world-famous experiment.
01:20:03In American newspapers, it is reported that at the time coming from the Adriatic Sea, Einstein was also there.
01:20:10He flew 15,000 miles to Manhattan to be attacked.
01:20:13And all this was done by a theoretical physicist.
01:20:16He was also constantly looking for the hidden truth and the middle ground.
01:20:20Einstein was born in a phenomenal phenomenon.
01:20:24But more important for Einstein was that his physicists debated whether his theory was accurate or not.
01:20:31As much as Einstein is remembered, it is more debated to make his theory.
01:20:36Einstein is being criticized more and more for his theory of relativity.
01:20:42People were surprised to see how accurate his theories were.
01:20:46In the summer of 1922, an eclipse as big as the Lord's Day would be able to be observed in all of Australia,
01:20:53and William Campbell believes that this was the best opportunity to start this debate once and for all.
01:21:00He begins to plan so that he would be full of his ideas.
01:21:04He projects everything from the beginning, even the biggest countries.
01:21:09The first eclipse would be seen in the most remote part of Australia, called the 90,000-mile barricade.
01:21:16But this time, Campbell was not alone.
01:21:19Seven Expeditors were sent to Australia.
01:21:22The British sent their people.
01:21:23Freudlich always went for it, and for this it was his only opportunity.
01:21:27After the Russian eclipse, John Emerson, a British astronomer, came from India.
01:21:33The Canadians always sent their people as two Expeditors to Australia.
01:21:38This was a strong competitiveness for Campbell.
01:21:41The British and Freudlich were surprised by the presence of the Arabs.
01:21:44People from the Australian Expeditors did not take the opportunity because of the malfunction that the country had to face.
01:21:51Emerson, who had come from India, had been registered, but he couldn't go to Asia because of his tactical disability.
01:22:05For Campbell, this was his third expedition and he was very prepared.
01:22:10He was able to secure photos that showed him the perfect results.
01:22:15And it happened that in 1992, the television in exactly the same way Einstein had expected,
01:22:22broadcasted more clearly, there was no doubt.
01:22:27This is one of the lenses that confirm the theory of relativity.
01:22:32The light passes through this lens and enters this plate.
01:22:37This is something very good. This is the heart.
01:22:39This is the brain. It can handle the charge of the day's eclipse and this is the source of the first predicted reflection by relativity.
01:22:47Einstein had been completely right.
01:22:51This was a very big personal achievement for Campbell and a historic moment for science.
01:22:56The Lick participants ultimately manage to achieve the perfect results, which they achieve with the calculations made in 1990 by our scientists.
01:23:06Now, who was the first person that Campbell predicted the results of his expedition?
01:23:12Albert Einstein?
01:23:14He wanted to be like Einstein.
01:23:16Yes, you were right.
01:23:18Eddington was always right, regardless of the rumors that floated.
01:23:21For Einstein, this was an extraordinary triumph.
01:23:25The Eclipse Expedition is a proof of something that seems very theoretical, but it's part of our lives.
01:23:33They showed that the orbit of the sun was curving.
01:23:40It was a whole new way of thinking about how gravity works.
01:23:45This was something amazing, contrary to our intuition.
01:23:49But this was a proof that proved that they were a little bit wrong.
01:23:53Nature accepts something like that.
01:23:55It is, as they say, yes, Einstein, you are right.
01:23:58His theory is actually correct.
01:23:59Finally, 15 years after the presentation of Einstein's Theory of General Relativity,
01:24:05for the first time, while contradicting a scientific belief that existed two centuries ago,
01:24:10Einstein was declared a winner.
01:24:13Almost.
01:24:15The Nobel Committee rejected Einstein a few times, in 1919, 1920, and 1921.
01:24:24Because no one accepted Einstein's Theory of General Relativity.
01:24:29Einstein had promised the Nobel Prize to his wife, Milieva, as a reward for the divorce.
01:24:35Milieva had signed the divorce and was living with her two children in Zurich,
01:24:40while accepting the Nobel Prize.
01:24:43Einstein will receive this prize only in 1922,
01:24:48and, ironically, he will not receive it for his Theory of General Relativity.
01:24:53Einstein receives the Nobel Prize for his discovery of the photoelectric effect.
01:24:57This discovery will open the quantum mechanics base,
01:25:01which uncovers the secrets of the atom.
01:25:04For Milieva, the partner of Einstein, this discovery was something worthy.
01:25:10She gets the money and buys three apartments in Zurich.
01:25:15Milieva did not make a very good investment, but he survived.
01:25:22For Einstein, who took care of him and took care of Einstein for many years,
01:25:27the end was near.
01:25:29She has confidence that they will get married.
01:25:32It was something unexpected, a miracle.
01:25:35Einstein had a lot of problems with his life,
01:25:38and I do not think that another marriage would have been the one he needed.
01:25:43But she loves Einstein very much.
01:25:46She loves the things he does with her,
01:25:48and she adores the fame and prestige she takes from the fact that she is her wife.
01:25:54As the world recovers from the plagues of war,
01:25:58she is a theoretical physicist,
01:26:01turning him into a global icon.
01:26:06Here you have the last person from the most destructive wars in the world.
01:26:12Einstein was like a painter.
01:26:14People from the four continents of the Atlantic,
01:26:17in Germany, Britain, America, etc.,
01:26:20called him a man of peace.
01:26:23As a result, his science was inspired to overcome the plagues of war.
01:26:29But also somebody whose science transcended the horrors of war.
01:26:34I think that all this comes as a result of his achievements.
01:26:39People referred to him not only as a man of peace,
01:26:42but also as a symbol that humanity can do good
01:26:46even in those aspects where so far it has been clearly done so terribly.
01:26:54The story of Einstein, which is said to be based on his theories,
01:26:58is somewhat enigmatic.
01:27:01A man who focuses on himself in his studio,
01:27:04using only his lack and his mind,
01:27:06he is able to make discoveries
01:27:09that will make humanity more interested in his films.
01:27:13They love the mystery.
01:27:15Einstein himself discovered the mystery,
01:27:18and he was in the epoch of something like that.
01:27:21They were intrigued by the four-dimensional effect,
01:27:24time, space, the pursuit of other ideas.
01:27:27These are all romantic ideas.
01:27:30People like these words.
01:27:32His ideas were unique.
01:27:35He could see and wake up to the elements of the universe
01:27:39that others could not imagine that such things existed.
01:27:43The theory of relativity is one of the greatest achievements of human mind.
01:27:49Think of the modern era,
01:27:52those lasers,
01:27:54communication, satellites,
01:27:56all this was created by the work of Albert Einstein.
01:27:59For example,
01:28:01laser beams,
01:28:02they cannot exist without the theory of general relativity.
01:28:12It is beautiful,
01:28:14simple and profound.
01:28:17It is the best theory of the universe.
01:28:21Einstein died in 1955,
01:28:25in the mid-19th century,
01:28:28but even a few centuries later,
01:28:29this man and his theory continue to expand the mind of mankind
01:28:33and inspire others.
01:28:35He was a man,
01:28:37who with his mind and his intellect,
01:28:40built the foundations of the universe,
01:28:43of war and war,
01:28:45while making himself one of the greatest figures
01:28:48in all of human history.
01:28:50This was something inspiring.
01:28:52You didn't have to be a butcher or have muscles to make history.
01:28:56You can create something like that,
01:28:59only with your mind and intellect.
01:29:02For me, this has always been something amazing.
