Albert Einstein Accomplishments
A Pure Genius “The true sign of intelligence is not knowledge but imagination.” (Einstein). Albert Einstein was an intelligent person who created many things that help us in today's world. He was born March 14, 1879 in Ulm, Germany. He grew up in and attended school in Munich, Germany. Einstein got his first diploma at the Central School in Aarau, Switzerland, and soon after was automatically admitted into Federal Institute of Technology (FIT). Albert Einstein had a very mystical life with events including some of his most famous inventions/discoveries, his inventions/discoveries significance, and his death. First, what were his most famous inventions/discoveries? Einstein had a top three which included the Theory of Relativity, E=mc2, and

For the Theory of Relativity, it changed the way scientists looked at the world and set a foundation for modern inventions. For E=mc2, it one of the equations the helped the Theory of Relativity. For the foundation for modern physics, it helped lead onto other modern physics discoveries such as Photons, Bose-Einstein Condensate, and the Atomic Bomb. Life without this knowledge is like a life without living. As you can see, without Einstein's discoveries, loads of other pieces of modern physics would not have been found. And finally, how did he die? Albert Einstein died from a ruptured Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm. He refused treatment, claiming he wanted to end life “elegantly”. Doctors removed his brain, in hope of finding what made him a genius. Dying the way Einstein died is like slowly dying away. Instead of asking to get better, he decided to slowly fall apart, piece by piece. I think all Einstein wanted was to die peacefully surrounded by the people he loved instead of being surrounded by machines and doctors. Overall, Albert Einstein had a very successful and meaningful life that led scientist to find new things. He was a huge help to today’s scientists with all of his discoveries. He lived a life that every human should aspire to live. “Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.”
