Do you know the major discoveries of the scientists in the pictures? He also discovered famous mathematical statement E=mc2 (energy equals mass times the speed of light squared). This statement or formula(公式) explained that a great amount of energy could come from a small piece of mass. 爱因斯坦理论所提出的基本观点是，宇宙间最大的速度是光速，质量似乎随着速度增加而增加；在空间移动的钟表的速率将随其速度的增加而减慢，而能量和质量则是相等而又可以互相转换的。 Einstein proposed the theory of the basic point is that the universe is the maximum speed of light, the quality seems to increase with speed; clocks in space move with the speed the rate of increase will be slowed down, while energy and mass are equal to each other but can be converted. 这后一论点基于这样一个公式（能量等于质量乘以光速的平方）， This latter argument is based on a formula (energy equals mass times the speed of light squared), E=mc2 它后来被原子分裂现象所证实，并成为制造原子弹的依据。 It was later confirmed by the phenomenon of splitting of the atom and become the basis for an atomic bomb. 在他晚年时，当爱因斯坦应邀向一群青年学生解释相对论时，曾这样说： In his later years, when Einstein was invited to explain the theory of relativity to a group of young students when he said: 当你和一个漂亮的女孩子坐在一起两个小时，你会以为才过去一分钟；而当你坐在坐在酷热的火炉上哪怕只有一分钟，你会以为已经两个小时，这就是相对论 When you sit with a pretty girl for two hours, you would think only the last one minute; and when you sit on a hot stove sitting even if only for a minute, you will think I have two hours, this is the theory of relativity. Edwin Hubble And he proved that nebulae (星云) were galaxies themselves. Astronomers now agree that far distant galaxies do exist. To honor him, the first telescope was named after him. beautiful space Hubble space telescope 哈勃空间望远镜是人类第一座太空望远镜, 总长度超过13米, 质量为11吨多, 运行在地球大气层外缘离地面约600公里的轨道上。它大约每100分钟环绕地球一周。哈勃望远镜是由美国国家航空航天局和欧洲航天局合作, 于1990年发射入轨的。 哈勃望远镜是以天文学家爱德文·哈勃的名字命名的。按计划, 它在2009年被詹姆斯韦布太空望远镜所取代。哈勃望远镜的角分辨率达到小于 0.1秒, 每天可以获取3到5G字节的数据。 Alexander Fleming (1881-1955) John William Mauchly J. Presper Eckert 这是美国军方要求宾州大学莫克利(Mauchly) 博士和他的学生爱克特(Eckert)设计的第一台计算机 , 准备用来计算炮弹及火箭、导弹的弹道, 它最终在原子弹的研
