البرٹ آئن سٹائن کی زندگی کے چند دلچسپ حقائق

معروف سائنسدان البرٹ آئن سٹائن جنہیں’فادر آف ماڈرن فزکس‘ کہا جاتا ہے، 14 مارچ 1879ء کو جرمنی کے شہر اولم میں اشکنازی یہودیوں کے ایک خاندان میں پیدا ہوئے۔ البرٹ آئن سٹائن کے والد ہرمن آئنسٹائن ایک سیلز مین اور انجینئر تھے، 1880ء میں یہ فیملی اولم سے میونخ شفٹ ہو گئی۔ ’فادر آف ماڈرن فزکس‘ کہلائے جانے والے نامور سائنسدان البرٹ آئن سٹائن کو اسکول میں لیٹریچر اور دیگر مضامین پڑھتے ہوئے بہت دشواری کا سامنا تھا جس کی وجہ سے اُنہیں اسکول سے نکال دیا گیا تھا۔ البتہ، البرٹ آئن سٹائن ریاضی میں بہت مہارت رکھتے تھے یہی وجہ ہے کہ اُنہوں نے صرف 12 سال کی عمر میں گرمیوں کے موسم میں الجبرا اور یوکلیڈین جیومیٹری سیکھ لی تھی۔ اس کے بعد اُنہوں نے اپنے والد سے تحفے میں ملنے والےایک کمپاس سے متاثر ہو کر صرف 16 سال کی عمر میں مقناطیسی قوت پر اپنا پہلا علمی مقالہ لکھا۔ البرٹ آئن سٹائن نے’Conclusions from Capillarity Phenomena‘ کے عنوان سے 1900ء میں اپنا پہلا مقالہ شائع کروایا اور 1905ء میں فزکس میں پی ایچ ڈی کی ڈگری حاصل کر لی۔

اُنہوں نے 1905ء میں فوٹو الیکٹرک افیکٹس، براؤنین موشن، اسپیشل ریلیٹیویٹی، اور ماس اور انرجی کی مساوات پر چار اہم مقالے شائع کروائے اور اس سال کو آئن سٹائن کے ’معجزوں کا سال‘بھی کہا جاتا ہے۔ 1925ء میں، البرٹ آئن اسٹائن کو تھیوری آف ریلیٹیویٹی اور کوانٹم تھیوری بنانے کے لیے ان کی خدمات پر رائل سوسائٹی آف لندن کے ممتاز کوپلے میڈل سے نوازا گیا تھا۔ اُنہیں سب سے زیادہ شہرت تھیوری آف ریلیٹیویٹی اور ماس- انرجی ایکیویویلنس فارمولا (E = mc2) کو تیار کرنے کے لیے ملی۔ البرٹ آئن اسٹائن کو 1921ء میں تھیوریٹِکل فزکس کے لیے بہترین خدمات اور لاء آف فوٹو الیکٹرک افیکٹس کی دریافت پر نوبل انعام سے بھی نوازا گیا۔ البرٹ آئن سٹائن کی نجی زندگی کے حوالے سے بات کی جائے تو اُنہوں نے جنوری 1903ء میں میلیوا مارک نامی ایک لڑکی سے شادی کی لیکن ان کی یہ شادی زیادہ عرصہ قائم نہ رہ سکی اور 1919ء میں طلاق ہو گئی۔ سائنسدان کی پہلی شادی کی ناکامی کی وجہ ان کی اپنی کزن ایلسا کے لیے دلچسپی تھی، طلاق کے فوراََ بعد 1919ء میں ہی اُنہوں نے اپنی کزن ایلسا لوونتھل سے شادی کر لی تھی، جن کا گردوں کی بیماری کی وجہ سے 1936ء میں انتقال ہو گیا تھا۔ 17 اپریل 1955ء میں البرٹ آئن سٹائن کا 76 سال کی عمر میں انتقال ہو گیا تھا۔

البرٹ آئن اسٹائن کے مشہور اقوال: آج البرٹ آئن اسٹائن کی سالگرہ کے موقع پر ان چند مشہور اقوال پر ایک نظر ڈال لیتے ہیں۔ 1- زندگی میں دو چیزیں لامحدود ہیں: کائنات اور انسانی حماقت 2- اگر آپ چاہتے ہیں کہ آپ کے بچے ذہین ہوں تو انہیں پریوں کی کہانیاں پڑھنے دیں اور اگر آپ چاہتے ہیں کہ وہ زیادہ ذہین ہوں تو انہیں مزید پریوں کی کہانیاں پڑھنے دیں۔ 3- زندگی بالکل ایک سائیکل پر سواری کرنے کی طرح ہے کیونکہ اپنا توازن برقرار رکھنے کے لیے انسان کو ہمیشہ حرکت کرتے رہنا پڑتا ہے۔ 4- ایک ہوشیار شخص مسئلے کا حل تلاش کرتا ہے لیکن ایک عقلمند شخص ہمیشہ مسئلے سے بچتا ہے۔

ARC Review: Kids' Nonfiction Books for March 2023: Darwin's Super-Pooping Worm Spectacular and Destiny Finds Her Way

*Summaries, Ratings, and Reviews for both books below the cut.

Darwin's Super-Pooping Worm Spectacular by Polly Owen

Order

Add to Goodreads

Publication Date: January 3, 2023

Synopsis:

Learn the funny and fascinating story of Charles Darwin and the groundbreaking discoveries his love of the humble worms led to in this hilarious illustrated book. Charles Darwin is widely known for his "Origin of Species" book, yet Darwin had another great love, and that was for worms. Told for the first time for children, this is the silly and fascinating true story of how Charles Darwin came to discover that the humble earthworm is the most important species on our planet. Darwin suspected worms were special but his scientist friends laughed at him. In a quest to find out the worms' special talent, Darwin played the bassoon to the worms to see if they could hear, laid out a picnic treasure hunt for them to see how well they could smell, among many other bizarre but entirely true experiments. But so far Darwin didn't find anything extra special about worms. Until, one day he realized that worms do have a superpower. They POO! Without their life sustaining, nutrient rich poo, there would be no plants and no animals on earth.  Darwin's 40 years studying worms is still essential to our understanding of worms today, and ever since, scientists have taken him VERY seriously, and never again laughed at his love of worms.  Told in a humorous and engaging way with non-fiction informationon each page to help educate alongside the story, curious minds will love this fact-filled, laugh-out-loud title. The story of Darwin and the worms not only centers around the perennially brilliant subject of poo, it teaches children about a key historic figure, the food cycle and deductive scientific thinking. It is also a heartwarming story of the triumph of a zany underdog who won't let bullies get in the way of his love for worms.

My Rating: ★★★★★

My Review:

This was super cute and my 3rd grader loved it and found it hilarious. (It has that universal kid appeal of talking about poop.) I can't believe I hadn't heard of Darwin's obsession with worms before.

The story was engaging and told with maximum humor. The illustrations were cute and humorous and matched the text perfectly. They also added quite a bit to the story.

I would definitely recommend this to kids in the 6-12 range who are interested in science.

My Rating: ★★★★★

My Review:

This short book is packed full of information about sloths and what happens to those who have been rescued and are being rehabilitated. The photos on each page are gorgeous and show the sloths' personalities and activities.

I look forward to reading this with my 3rd grader. He is really into animals right now and I think he will enjoy learning about this.

The text is at an appropriate reading level for my 3rd grader and he should be able to read it himself. The layout of each page is attractive, with photos and text arranged in an aesthetically pleasing and easy to read manner that draws the eye around the page.

I would recommend this to any kid who loves animals or is interested in animal rescue. It would be great in an elementary school library or classroom library.

My kiddo did in fact really enjoy reading this one. He even chose to read most of it aloud (after bargaining for reading every other page while I read the rest) and was really into the story. He found all the sloth pictures very cute.

Okay so here comes my mindless ramblings about mordern au! Wwx:

Mordern au! Wwx could be so many things honestly, like he could actually be famous genius researcher, professor, lawyer, crime investigator or even a famous model, pop star. Like the range is crazy, he is just so good at everything (except cooking lol). I personally think he would be a innovative scientist and renowned professor cuz' Wwx is naturally curious, creative and innovative.

I am thinking about how his life would have been better if he was born in today's world, like Wwx was honestly 'ahead of his time' kinda guy, they hated him because he was better, cooler and hotter. If he was famous in the mordern au and the whole getting cancelled thing were to happen, it would probably happen because someone tried to frame him *cough cough jgy or Su she cough cough* for the shit he didn't do or something.

But yeah Wwx is born to be an exceptional talent, a prodigy, he is THE HOT GUY EVER. I love him. Thank you reading this ramble.

The fact that the Doof had been paired and proved most compatible with Perry, canonically and repeatedly proclaimed to be one of OWCA's best agents in the field, is curious to me.

Some fics have a throwaway line or two talking referring to his compatibility with other agents. I think, also, about the canonical fact that he remains as third most dangerous evil scientist in OWCA's ledger.

I also like thinking about the fact that we have been proven, multiple times, in VARIOUS dimensions and fluctuations to the time space continuem, that were he not continuously thwarted throughout his career, he would not only have achieved tyrannical rule, he would have EXCELLED in it, and perfectly undefeated, EVEN BY HIS EVIL PEERS that people loved to pretend were always more competent than him.

Like. I think about that. Why? What makes Heinz so dangerous? What made everyone else incompatible to a point OWCA realized they needed to send their best, and he needed to be on call ALL THE TIME?

While often credited with the invention of peanut butter, George Washington Carver did NOT actually create the delicious food. However, he did find over 300 uses for peanuts! This is why he was known as the “Peanut Man.”🥜

How the redesign for fritz going so far?

It's going good I think! I'm still kind of playing around with his design, but it's getting there ^^

Fritz is actually in Ulyana and Vitya's story quite a bit ^^

My brain just hit an old hyperfixation (is this what it's called? I hope I used the word right) and oh dear am I losing my mind now. I need to write a story I think. About this one old guy. He's unhinged. There's so much information about him and yet not enough. I want to explore his character so much. He's definitely a criminal - at least he was one - and I'm 95% sure he can do actual real magic, and he's a musician and an artist and an actor and a magician and a philosopher and a traveler and a conman and so much more and also I think he's some kind of immortal. Maybe he just has a VERY long life. It's strongly implied he was a pirate at some point of his life. He started a cult by accident several times. My conspiracy theories about him include him being a secret god.

He's also a freaking round blue raven. Someone save me from my mind.
