Albert Einstein was the most famous scientist who ever lived. One of the achievements that turned the page of the history of science was the equation E = mc2. He won the Nobel Prize in 1921 for work in connection with the photoelectric effect. He developed the theory of relativity, which had been completed in time, but it took 25 years to understand others. His contribution to the view of the world changed radically. Before Einstein, some things believed as true. Among them were, and the laws of gravity and falling bodies, mentioned earlier by Isaac Newton. Also at that time it was believed that time itself was a physical constant: everyone and everything experience over time as everyone and everything else. His theory of Special Relativity predicted that this was not true and was later confirmed by experiments with nuclear clock.
Einstein's name today is synonymous with the word find. Albert Einstein is one of the greatest minds of the 20 th century. Some of his ideas about science, nature and faith may surprise you. Not for nothing is chosen Person of the Century by Time magazine. But, did you know that Einstein was born with a head so big as his mother thought he had not been born deformed? Or that he had a secret child who married before? These and many others in today's specialen Tirana Observer.
1. Einstein was a healthy babies with a big headache
When Albert's mother, Pauline, the bare, his head was so big and crooked, as she thought that was not warped. Because the end of the head was too big, the family thought was not monster. However, while the weeks passed they realized it was a child almost normal to others. His grandmother said he cried is healthy, is healthy, when he expected to give birth. Unlike the first impression, Albert grew normally, only that it was a little slow.
2. Einstein had difficulty speaking
As a child, Einstein spoke rarely. When you do, it speaks more slowly. The thought of all the sentence in the head and whisper before him. He did this regularly until the age of 9 years. Parents feared was not delayed, but certainly later turned out that their fears were unfounded. This is called Einstein syndrome.
3. When Einstein spoke for the first time
A historian has created the joke apparently. His parents were concerned that he would say nothing. When an evening spoke and said soup is hot, parents asked why he had not spoken before. He replies: Because everything was in order.
4. Einstein was inspired by a compass
When Einstein was five years old and the sick in bed, Dad told something was sparked interest in science: A compass. While standing hypocritical father issued a simple pocket compass. It was new Einstein cared was that whenever nderronte box position, the needle back in the same direction. He thought there should be some force in what was considered empty space that made the needle to move. This incident is more common in childhood famous, is often mentioned in many stories of his life.
5. Einstein remained in the entrance exam to college
In 1895, at the age of 17 years, Albert Einstein applied to enter the Swiss Federal Polytechnic School (Eidgenössische Technische Hochschule). He passed the exam of mathematics and science to the entrance exam, but remained on the contrary. Among the subjects that did not go well was the history, foreign languages, geography and others. Einstein must enroll in a trade school before ribente exam and finally was admitted to the same university a year later.
6. Einstein had an illegitimate child
In 1980, Einstein's private papers have discovered something new for genius. There was a girl with former student unlawful Mileva Maric, who later married. In 1902, a year before marriage, Mileva gave birth to the family of parents in Berne, a girl named Lieserl, which Einstein never saw it and for which it is not known anything. She was baptized and lived with the family of Mileves. Later it says died of fever in September, 1903. In the correspondence of the couple says that is given for adoption after birth. In the letter of 19 September 1903 Lieserl Einstein-Maric stated for the last time.
7. Einstein proposes a strange contract
After he and Mileva were married, they had two sons, Hans Albert and Eduard. Academic success and traveling around the world had their price. He distanced himself from his wife for some time, the couple tried to deal with the problems. Einstein proposed a strange contract to live with Mileven. The conditions were that the clothes were clean and ironed, you conte three warm meals in the room, that room and studio were clean, except for the working table, that she stop speaking when he demanded to . She agreed and he promised that foreigners would consider any other woman. After divorce, the relationship of Einstein with the rock great son. Hans blamed the father for separation from Mileva and after Einstein won the Nobel Prize and money. He gave her only interest and not big amount of the price. Their quarrels were added when Einstein rejected marriage with Frieda Knecht son because it was big and ugly. When they married, Einstein asked the boy not to make children, as this would make it even more difficult divorce. Even Einstein's mother had rejected marriage with Mileven. When the son immigrated to America, they remain separate.
8. Einstein, the favorite of women
When Einstein Mileven divorced in 1919 (adultery is considered as one of the reasons), he married cousin, Elsa Lowenthal. In fact he wanted to marry with elses daughter from a previous marriage, Ilse, 18 years younger than he, but she objected. Unlike Mileva, elses main concern was the care for her famous husband. She knew and tolerated betrayals and relationships thereof, which later revealed to his letters. Originally betrayed secretary, Betty Neumann. His correspondence shows that he was connected with six women, among them a Russian spy.
9. pacifist who invented the atomic bomb
In 1939, alarmed by the proliferation of Nazi Germany, Leo Szilard persuaded Einstein to write a letter to US President Franklin Roosevelt, where he warned that Nazi Germany was building a nuclear bomb and the United States suggested to develop the bomb them. Einstein's letters and Szilardit regarded as one of the reasons that Roosevelt launched the Manhattan Project to develop the bomb, although later it was discovered that the bombing of Pearl Harbor in 1941, the government persuaded more than their cards. Although it was brilliant physicist, considered the military as a security risk and is not invited to the project.
10. Einstein in Albania
Who could have thought that the great physicist has violated Albanian land? And not only that. He was fitted with Albanian passport by King Zog, as a defense that he gave the most famous Jew of the 20th century to. Although for very little time, Einstein in 1931 remained in the port of Durres, awaiting ship.
11. Brain toured the jar for 43 years
After his death in 1955, Einstein's brain was removed without permission of the family of Thomas Harvey was heading autopsy. He's got brains at home and later was dismissed because he refused to hand over the body. Many years later, when Harvey got permission from Hansi to study the brain, scientists sent a few pieces worldwide. One of them was Marian Diamond of the University of Berkeley, which found that he had more cells in the part of the brain that was responsible for synthesizing information. His brain neurons, which was bigger than normal, better communicate with one another, due to the absence of a wrinkle called cutting silviane. Other studies suggest that the brain of Einstein was cramped and inferior lobe, which deals with skills in mathematics, was greater than the normal brain.
12. Einstein's brain Saga
In the early 1990s, writer Michael Paterniti traveled to California together with doctor Harvey to meet Einstein stermbesen. They traveled from New Jersey to the large family car, while tundej Einstein's brain in a jar in the trunk. Paterniti few years later he wrote about his experiences in the book in the car with Mr. Albert: A journey through America with Einstein's brain. In 1998, 85-year-old Harvey gave brain doctor Elliot Krauss, staff pathologist at the University Priceton position that Harvey had before. He says: As I have kept the brain for decades as if it were a holy relic, and for many it was so, and I left with a free end. I gave him the pathology department at Princeton Medical Center, where Einstein spent the last 2 decades. He tired of the responsibility that I had. Now I am calm.
13. did not want to exhausted mind more than needed and liked to stay barefoot
Apart favorite sport, sailing (sport that requires less energy), Einstein shunned any recreational activity skillfully advocated mind. As he told the New York Times, just end it projects you have in hand, I do not want to deal with anything else that requires intellectual work. When I was young, I discovered that the leg thumb always make a hole in socks, he once said. Therefore wore no socks, he continues.
14. I do not follow fashion and there never ever learn to write English
Einstein was a stubborn fanatic. He refused to dress as it advised, whoever he was or what. People or people knew, or did not know at all, he reasoned, so it was important we did not see the same suit a whole year. Although he lived for many years in the United States and good speaking both languages, Einstein says he has never been able to write in English, due to the imposition of the unfaithful. He never lost his distinctive German accent I vill a little t'ink (I Will a little think)
15. smoked like chimney
One member be a pipe smokers Club, in Montreal, Einstein is quoted as saying: Smoking a pipe contributes to the trial with calm and objective human issues. Once it fell into the water during an expedition to the boat, but managed heroically to shore llullen his hand.
16. He had ZET science fiction literature
In order not to be confused with pure science and give people false illusions regarding scientific reasoning, he recommended complete abstinence from any kind of literary science fiction. He also suggested that people who have seen flying discs must keep them for themselves. Einstein relax in his kitchen with faithful violin, stubbornly trying to improvizonte something that felt like melodic line. When it does arrive, he returned to Mozart.
17. Alcohol was not preferred drugs
In a press conference on his arrival in New York in 1930, he said, making jokes to prohibit alcohol: I s'pi, equally so for me it is. In fact, Einstein was critical open to laws that can not be imposed.
18. The equalizing monogamy with monotonine
All marriages are dangerous, once told interviewer. Marriage is the unsuccessful attempt to do something to extend by one incident. Man widely known that he was unfaithful, which tended to fall in love with someone else after just had exchanged promises.
19. remembered birthdays there
With the belief that the birthdates were for children, he summarized his position in a letter that he wrote to girlfriend Mileva Maric: Loved my little heart ..., first my heartfelt congratulations on your birthday yesterday, which again forgot.
20. There was no citizenship for 5 years
He was not a citizen of any country for about 5 years! Since 1896 (when he refused German citizenship at the age of 15-years) to 1901 (when it became Swiss).
21. She did not want to do high school exams
Contrary to popular belief, he remained at the high school. It went very well until the age of 15-years. She did not want to stay in that year that he had left and tried to do the entrance exam for the college, in which remained, and still had to finish high school.
22. Why the language brought famous picture
Einstein's birthday was wrecked by a plurality of photographers. Tired of them, he took language in the hope that I would derail picture. (As if it was actor nowadays it will have to withdraw apparatus from the hand). Certainly his plan got back to cover. Since the scientist had a reputation as one of the strange, the picture was seen as another example of his irascible charm and became one of his pictures of beautiful.
23. What was the capacity of intelligence
Einstein's intelligence capacity was 160. People considered smart. Bill Clinton is the highest this figure. The truth is that online quiz to assess intelligence was invented later, so do not Einstein never did. it is better to say that it was much smarter than you and I together.
24. Einstein believed in God
Einstein was Jewish; Jewish by the people of God. He objected to the random nature of quantum mechanics, and said God does not play dice. Among the most famous phrases of his are: Before God are equal in wit and equal in budadallek, God always chooses the simplest way, I want to know all thoughts of God; all the rest are details.
25. Why was not present at the Nobel Prize?
Was not present in December 1922 to receive the Nobel Prize in physics, he was in a trip to Japan. During this time he made many international visits. He visited Paris before December and a year later visited Palestine. After recent scientific discovery, in connection with waves and matter, in 1924 he made other visits, but this time in South America.
26. The origins of the humble
Einstein was born in Ulm, Germany, on 14 March 1879 at the address Bahnhofstrasse 135, which was later bombed by allied forces in 1944. His parents were middle-class Jews. They called Hermann and Pauline.
27. Geometry and philosophy
Favorite subjects in school were geometry and philosophy. He liked so much geometry as he began to study at the age of 12-years. Even philosophy was important to her, as was the study of the universe and the meaning of life. It encouraged to seek answers. He studied philosophy every Thursday with a student named Max Talemy of medicine who join his family for dinner.
28. The first work that made
Albert never has had to work until his family moved to Milan, Italy. There he found work first in a Swiss patent office in Bern and stayed for seven years, using free time to study physics and to write articles for local universities.
29. Aspects of life that liked
Nature and music occupied the first place. Einstein liked to wander in nature. His walks were thought and forget the time when the whole world. Love for music took him from his mother. He never gave up the violin. When he became too old to play with him, he was sitting and listening to music in his record.

31. reasonable way to education
In a letter which he wrote a young girl in 1934, Einstein wrote: There are so many ways of education in the world, especially in American schools. The only reasonable way to learn is to become an example, if it out, a warning example.
32. Notes to the Theory of Relativity sold 6 million dollars
In 1944, his letter where he wrote Theory of Relativity, early in 1905, was taken in the auction. It gathered 6 million dollars and today manuscript is located in Library of Congress. Nowadays we would probably sell for more, but at that time it was a record.
33. Man with friendly of time
He was born in Ulm in Germany even though the family moved to several different countries to live, he liked more hometown. During his walks in the city cheered and gave her hand to anyone to see.
34. Einstein President
In 1952, Einstein was offered the presidency of Israel, because of his beliefs, but refused. Order of the universe was evidence to that God existed. He also was a pacifist and war published the book Why ?.
35. When did the Nobel Prize
In 1921 Albert Einstein was awarded the Nobel prize for his work to photo-electricity. Many of his theories include atomic bomb, radiation treatment to cure cancer, laser development and exploration in space.
36. Life expectation at birth
Albert passed away at the age of 76-years. He left on 18 April 1955. The last 22 years of his life spent in the Institute of Advanced Studies in Princeton, New Jersey. In that small town to college, Albert was a familiar face. every day, polite gentleman with gray hair out from the office to home and always stopped to talk to passers.
37. The characteristic appearance
He was known for snow-white beard and crazy hair. But how were the natural hair? They were black, as pictures appear in the new age. Since at that time all the pictures were black and white, very curious and have put in doubt the fact, but were black, typical for Jews.
38. After Germany in Oxford
In 1921 he received the Nobel Prize, but with the rise of Nazism, he moved to England. There taught at universities in Oxford and Cambridge, before moving to the USA. Upon arrival in the United States Einstein moved to California, land of beaches and sunny winters. There became a professor at the Institute of Technology in Pasadena, California. Also he taught also at Princeton University.
39. sought to remove the atomic bomb
Einstein did not ever expect what will happen in the future with nuclear bombs. In the November 1945, he addressed the issue magazine Atlantic Monthly; repeated request in November 1947. In connection with the atomic bomb suggested that to surrender one-world government established by Russia, the US and Britain. Wrote at the time, nuclear weapons were not so strong as today.
40. Einstein refuses money and hated what
Princeton University appointed an amount for salary. He was asked to put themselves this much. University had decided to 10 thousand dollars per month, but Einstein asked only 3 thousand dollars. He also refused a pension of 7,500 dollars per year, and considered as very generous. Pension was reduced to six thousand dollars. With them bought a modest house, he went to work and never had any machine. hated what? The only things that were out there like barber and socks. Einstein never visited barber that did not need a new model hair, liked the old one more.
41. How and where the children had passed away
Total Einstein had three children. A girl, Lieserl, and two sons, Edward and Albert. New Alberti later became engineering professor at Berkley University. His son Edward was schizophrenic. Second wife had two children, Ilse and Margot. Einstein died in 1955 at the hospital in Princeton. The brain was removed for study and was maintained in Wichita, Kansas. There was placed in the laboratory of Dr. Thomas Harvey, the former chief pathologist of Princeton University.
42. philosopher who influenced and subjects s'kuptonte
At the age of 13-year-old Einstein studied the ideas of the philosopher of the 18th century, Immanuel Kant. He had an important influence on Einstein's new ideas of time, space and harmonious universe. Kant also was also a wicked sense of humor and nothing honepse not pompous. Both of these features were forwarded to Einstein. Subject to bear in elementary school there was Greek. For this reason it fell infantile depression. During this time young Albert had taught himself Latin, advanced math and discovered love for geometry. Later in life he announced the discovery of Euclid, as a great pleasure in life. He refers to a book on Euclidean geometry as sacred.
43. Theory of Relativity discovered asleep
In 1905, the last riddle of the Theory of Relativity was resolved to sleep. Einstein is quoted as saying to his discovery: In my mind exploded with a storm and came the answer. A friend later said: He has entered the thoughts of God and these thoughts reveal his plan for the universe.
44. what it means E = mc2 and shows what the equation
Einstein's special theory of relativity compiled in a magazine a few years later with the legendary E = mc2 equation. This translates equation, energy = mass multiplied by the speed of light squared. The measure contains large amounts of energy. It shows what the equation? Marie Curie discovered that an ounce (28.35 grams) of radium raised four thousand calories / per hour indefinitely. E = mc2 is the basis for the discovery of how the sun and the stars have radiated light and heat during the millennia, and to the horror of Einstein, this equation shows the production of the atomic bomb.
45. The other Nobel prizes
17 years after the publication of Relativity, in 1922. Einstein won the Nobel Prize for Service to Theoretical Physics. There are several reasons why the Nobel Prize was not given as often. Relativity at that time was quite controversial and theoretical. There can be proved. The fact that the judges could not see a problem with it.
46. Followed by FBI
Edgar Hoover suspected that Einstein was a communist. He spent thousands of hours to convince the FBI to condemn Einstein, but without success. Although Hoover suspected that he was a communist, he will never approve the interception of telephone or mail. After many hours of research, Hoover left the case against him and Einstein's secretary, Helen Doukas. They had collected so much as touch the ceiling folder, but none of them prove anything. Later, friends say Einstein laughed at this story.
47. Why Could theory is accepted immediately
One of the reasons that it took 30 years to most scientists support the theory of relativity is that clearing the mythical existence of ether. Ether was considered as an infinite substance in the form of gelatin, as the vehicle for the dissemination of electromagnetic waves. The existence of ether was tried several times, but it was not true. It was proven to support the theory of Maxwell, that light consists of electromagnetic waves. Waves seeking a means to travel and this tool was believed to have been resilient, strong and called ether. Relativity shook this faith, but faith in the existence of ether was so strong in mind with large, as they refused to believe that there was and put Einstein nicknamed Rogue.
48. One never forgave the Nazis never
Einstein did not ever forgive the Nazis for extermination of Jews. In 1944 he wrote: Germans as a people in general are responsible for mass murder and should be punished as a people if there is justice in the world and if there remained a little bit from the collective conscience of the world.
49. After Death
Besides his brain has not left anything tangible, since ashes thrown into a river in the US.
50. Man of the Century, by Time
US magazine Time, in 1999 and appointed as Person of the Century. In wider culture the name Einstein has become synonymous with genius.
