Albert Einstein Vs Isaac Newton

By Shayne Provendido

The name Albert Einstein and Sir Isaac Newton are bywords of many people all through the walks of life. They are considered two of the greatest scientists of all time.
Albert Einstein (March 14, 1879- April 15, 1955) was a German physicist. His contributions to Physics started in 1905 that includes: the explanation of the Brownian motion in terms of Molecules, the explanation of photoelectric effect in terms of quantum in which he received a Nobel Prize and the Special Theory of Relativity that has become a major tool of Modern Physics. He also developed General Relativity Theory that was more accurate than of Newton's.
Albert Einstein's equation E=mc² (Energy = mass times the speed of light squared) paved the way for the creation of the first atomic bomb. Though he condemned the use of it, President Franklin D. Roosevelt approved the plan for an all out effort in atomic bomb.

Las Vegas' Museum of Atomic Testing

Precise estimates are difficult to make, but countries that have nuclear weapons have exploded around two thousand of these devices on the Earth in about a dozen places. The last such test happened on May 25th in 2005; the test was conducted by North Korea within a few months of the opening of the Atomic Testing Museum in the deserts of Nevada in Las Vegas.
While most people might not think that gambling and atomic bombs go together, they probably haven't taken a moment to head on over to this intriguing museum practically in the center of all the glitter and excitement of the casinos on the Vegas Strip on 755 East Flamingo Road.

About the Atomic Bomb

By David Bunch

During World War II, air-planes of the United States and its allies dropped very heavy bombs on enemy territory. The biggest bombs were called "blockbusters" because they would destroy an entire city block. They were filled with TNT, a powerful explosive, and they weighed a ton, 2,000 pounds, each. Then on August 6, 1945, an American air-plane dropped a single bomb on the city of Hiroshima, in Japan. Unlike t n t bombs, this one was made to explode in the air, about 1,500 feet above the ground.
When this bomb exploded, the flash could be seen for two hundred miles. The explosion flattened buildings in nearly four square miles-the same as hundreds of city blocks.
