How do we know Einstein has it right?

941 views

We constantly say that Einstein’s General and Special theories of relativity have passed many different tests, insenuating their accuracy.

Before Einsten, we tested Isaac Newton’s theories, which also passed with accuracy until Einstein came along.

What’s to say another Einstein/Newton comes along 200-300 years from now to dispute Einstein’s theories?

Is that even possible or are his theories grounded in certainty at this point?

Nothing. Science at his most basic is just what we see(observe). So far, what Einstein saw is what we all see now. 2-300 years down the line, someone may see something else, and then they open our eyes to it.

This is not a show for 5 year old, but Its Always Sunny in Philadelphia had a scene where one of main characters tries to ruin evolution and he kept on pointing how scientist kept being proven wrong by other scientists. That’s how science works.
