Who was Albert Einstein and what did he do?

I am personally disappointed if you do not know who Albert Einstein

was, nonetheless Albert Einstein is a renowned scientist who undoubtedly
had a very significant impact on the scientific community during the 20th
century, and even afterwards because of how useful his skills were and
respected he was, he also became extremely impactful politically. Albert
Einstein lended his abilities when America was creating the first nuclear
bombs, a military force that ended a world war, started another war and
changed the world forever. Albert Einstein is most renowned because of his
“Theory of Relativity” which changed universal understanding of physics
forever.
What was the Manhattan Project?
The Manhattan Project, was the development of the first atomic
bombs, something that would forever change the way war would be
forever. The main ingredient that was tested on was uranium, which was a
bare necessity to any possible nuclear development, a race between Nazi
Germany, and America. This created a fear in many scientists , like Eugene
Wigner and Leó Szilárd, who drafted the “Einstein–Szilárd” letter that was
able to become approved by the world renowned scientist Albert Einstein.
This was letter designed to help convince the United States to start
development on the Atomic bomb, 2 that were dropped on Japanese cities
in 1945 to force a surrender, and that which also caused the cold war. The
Manhattan Project was a success, as America developed Nuclear weapons
before Germany did. This was one contribution that Einstein went on to
regret, as he stated “I do not know with what weapons World War three will
be fought with, but World War four will be fought with sticks and stones”
showing that the next big conflict could reverse history, and showing guilt
for allowing the creation of such a destructive device, although a sub-
product of nuclear research is the creation of nuclear power-plants and
further advancing scientific understanding leading to new ideas. Einstein
was alive during the first nuclear power-plant and during the atomic
explosions in Hiroshima and Nagasaki, but he was dead during the
Chernobyl incident, the first major nuclear meltdown.

What is the Theory of Relativity?

The Theory of Relativity is one of the most complicated things I can
mention about Einstein, so to save you 10+ pages of reading, and me 10+
pages of typing, it will be simplified down to relatively easy to understand
terms and the entire thought process in discovering it will be a little
incomplete. Einstein was wondering about light and went into research,
eventually forming statements on understanding gravity and discovering
the speed of light through what is called General Relativity. The statements
he developed on General Relativity somewhat go like this .

● Events are seen based off of light, if you see something a light-year
away you are seeing a year in the past.
● When moving at extreme speeds (fractions of speed of light) lengths
of objects are shortened.
● Effects of gravity are similar in speed to light(EFFECTS).
● Gravity is a reactive force around objects in the fabric of space time,
in relation to surrounding objects.
● Space and time create a fabric called Space-Time fabric which is
widely accepted as the fabric of the universe.
● Nothing is faster than light (outside quantum physics). It is the
maximum speed of the observable universe.
The Theory of relativity defined the way gravity and light is currently
understood.

Albert Einstein was influential in terms of exchange, but he
exchanged what could never be bought with silk or gold. His exchanging of
the ideas he had would come to revolutionize scientific thinking for at least
a century and maybe forever. He worked with famous scientists, an
example of which is Max Planck, the father of Quantum physics and Max
plank is also just as important to scientific history as Albert Einstein.
