Albert Einstein knew a thing or two about science. That’s an understatement. Beneath that fluffy white hair, is a brain like no other, that mere students like myself cannot fathom. As much as I praise good old Albert, lets admit that if he was in your class at Uni, you would hate him. The man only has to breathe on a piece of paper to get first class marks and his deep and meaningful gaze speaks volumes. Take a moment to look at him… when was the last time you looked like that in one of your selfies?
This aside, Einstein’s brilliance resided in his reasoning. If you can’t explain it simply, you don’t understand it well enough. More often than not, scientific theories remain just that – a theory – because too many lines of thought crowd the simple truth. One only has to read my previous publication to see that the higher the complexity the greater the implausibility.
In a quest to write about some of the greatest conundrums and scientific discoveries, I am going to stick by Einstein and keep it simple. In this way, we might all be a little clearer on what on Earth is going on.
