Einstein’s Theory of Relativity- Half Science, Half Philosophy

Abstract

This paper discusses how relativity physics woven around Einstien’s theory of relativity superseded Newtonian physics which had run into a crisis. The cosmology projected by Newtonian physics has been invalidated by the Michelson-Morley experiment and FIzeau’s tube experiment. These experiments demonstrated the impossibility of absolute motion measured from the stand point of immovable ether, absolute time and absolute space which operated as cornerstones of Newtonian physics.
