Animation Celebrates Centennial of Einstein’s General Relativity

Award-winning animator Eoin Duffy has teamed up with filmmaker Jamie Lochhead, actor David Tennant (Doctor Who), and science communicator Anais Rassat to create a three-minute animation celebrating 100 years of Einstein’s theory of general relativity.

Einstein’s theory of gravity — called general relativity — was developed in 1915 and explains everything from how planets in the solar system orbit our sun, to black holes and how the universe evolved after the Big Bang.

The animation is funded by the STFC.
