The theory of relativity is actually attributed to Albert Einstein. There are two parts to the theory:

  • Special relativity: Proposed and published in 1905, this theory focused on the relationship between space, time, and motion, particularly at constant speeds.
  • General relativity: Developed from 1907 to 1915, this theory explained gravity not as a force, but as a curvature of spacetime caused by massive objects.
