Einstein’s theory of general relativity reshaped our understanding of the universe. Instead of thinking of gravity as a force, Einstein showed it is the bending and warping of space and time caused by mass and energy. This radical idea not only explained how planets orbit stars, but also opened the door to astonishing predictions. In this seminar we will explore some of its most fascinating consequences from the expansion of the universe, to gravitational waves, and the existence of black holes.
