  5. The theory of relativity usually encompasses two interrelated physics theories by Albert Einstein: special relativity and general relativity, proposed and published in 1905 and 1915, respectively. [1] Special relativity applies to all physical phenomena in the absence of gravity. General relativity explains the law of gravitation and its ...

  6. Nov 28, 2001 · Early philosophical interpretations of the general theory of relativity selected distinct aspects of that theory for praise or favored recognition. Positivist followers of Mach initially lauded Einstein’s attempt to implement a “relativization of inertia”—roughly, that the inertia of a body (inertial mass, local inertial behavior) is an ...

  7. relativity, Concept in physics that measurements change when considered by observers in various states of motion. In classical physics, it was assumed that all observers anywhere in the universe would obtain identical measurements of space and time intervals. According to relativity theory, this is not so; all measurements depend on the ...

  8. The first plausible candidates for black holes were observed in the 1970s. Astronomy - Relativity, Space-Time, Cosmology: A key theoretical development for 20th-century astronomy and cosmology was the development of the theory of relativity, from 1905 to 1915, which eventually led to an explanation of the origin of the universe.
