special theory of relativity

基本解释

According to Albert Einstein’s special theory of relativity, this is impossible.
根據愛因斯坦的狹義相對論，這儅然是不可能的。
What he did not know—indeed, what no one knew until now—is that most cars would not work without the intervention of one of his most famous discoveries, the special theory of relativity.
而他不知道的——也是直到現在人們才知道的是——沒有他的偉大發現之一，即狹義相對論，大多數汽車不可能發動起來。
Newton's absolute time may feel like an accurate description of the beast that rules our daily lives, but in science the notion was shattered in 1905 by Einstein's special theory of relativity.
牛頓的絕對時間概唸野獸般精確地定義著我們每天的生活，但是在愛因斯坦1905年發表的《狹義相對論》中，這個概唸被否定了。

Another example is in the special theory of relativity which denies all absolutes and meanings of truth.

ECONOMIST: Modern physics
This idea is at the heart of his theory of special relativity, on which much of our modern technology and scientific understanding is based.

the theory proposed in 1905 by Einstein, which assumes that the laws of physics are equally valid in all nonaccelerated frames of reference and that the speed of electromagnetic radiation in free space has the same value for all inertial observers. It leads to the idea of a space-time continuum and the equivalence of mass and energy. In combination with quantum mechanics it forms the basis of the theory of elementary particles (Also called special relativity)&rarrsee also general theory of relativity
