tomic model. In 1905, he received a doctorate in physics from the University of Zurich. In 1911, he became the professor of physics at the University of Prague. He then held the same job at the Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich in 1912. Einstein was elected to the Prussian Academy of Sciences in Berlin in 1913, and in 1914, he again became a German citizen when he accepted the position Professor of Physics at the University of Berlin. In 1916, he published his General Theory of Relativity. While in the United States during the Second World War, the Nazi government took Einsteins house, possessions, and citizenship. He then accepted a position as a staff member t the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, New Jersey, where he stayed for the rest of his life. In 1940, Einstein became United States citizen. He was also offered the presidency of Isreal in 1952, but declined. Albert Einstein died on April 8, 1955. While alive, Einstein became dissatisfied with most of the current theories of physics, so he constructed his own. He was the first to realize that all motion and position was relative, and that that the fact that two events happening at the same time was useless knowledge. With his Special Theory of Relativity, he created to postulates for governing it. The first is that the laws of physics must be at the same prospective for an observer through the period of observation. The second postulate used was that the speed of light in a vacuum must also be the same for all observers. In the theory, Einstein treated time and space as a single-four dimension space-time continuum. The resultant of this is that no object can move faster than the speed of light. Einstein is also credited with being the scientist who jump-started the creation of the first atomic bomb, the item that ended World War II. Einsteins achievements are also considered the greatest of all scientists by many.The history of all the scientists mentioned helps ...
