Albert Einstein
Theoretical physicist
Description
Albert Einstein was a German-born theoretical physicist, widely acknowledged to be
one of the greatest and most influential physicists of all time. Einstein is best known for
developing the theory of relativity, but he also made important contributions to the
development of the theory of quantum mechanics
Albert Einstein was born at Ulm, in Württemberg, Germany, on March 14, 1879. Six
weeks later the family moved to Munich, where he later on began his schooling at the
Luitpold Gymnasium. Later, they moved to Italy and Albert continued his education at
Aarau, Switzerland and in 1896 he entered the Swiss Federal Polytechnic School in
Zurich to be trained as a teacher in physics and mathematics. In 1901, the year he
gained his diploma, he acquired Swiss citizenship and, as he was unable to find a
teaching post, he accepted a position as technical assistant in the Swiss Patent Office.
In 1905 he obtained his doctor’s degree.

Galileo Galilei
Astronomer
Galileo di Vincenzo Bonaiuti de' Galilei, commonly referred to as Galileo, was an
Italian astronomer, physicist and engineer, sometimes described as a polymath,
from the city of Pisa, then part of the Duchy of Florence.
If he had stopped here and become a man of wealth and leisure, Galileo Galilei
might be a mere footnote in history. Instead, a revolution started when, one fall
evening, the scientist trained his telescope on an object in the sky that all people at
that time believed must be a perfect, smooth, polished heavenly body—the moon.
To his astonishment, Galileo Galilei viewed a surface that was uneven, rough, and
full of cavities and prominences.

Michael Faraday was a great scientist of the 18th century.
He had born on 22 September 1791 in England.
Due to financial problem, he computed most of his education by self.
He had an interest in reading about electricity.
While warking in the royal Institute of great Britain, he got world wide fame and
recognition.
It was Michael faraday who auated had the first electric generator.
He had established his laboratory is London which you can still visit today.
