 Theory of Relativity - Philosophy Dictionary of Arguments
 
Theory of relativity: The theory of relativity describes the relationship between space and time. It was developed by Albert Einstein in the early 20th century. A. The special theory of relativity (1905) The laws of physics are the same in all uniformly moving reference systems. This means that the laws of physics are equally valid whether you are at rest or in uniform motion. The speed of light in a vacuum is the same for all observers, regardless of the movement of the light source or the observer. - B. General theory of relativity (1915) This takes into account the distribution of masses and describes gravity as the curvature of space-time. See also space, time, spacetime, curved space.
