A picture of Albert Einstein in 1947.
Albert Einstein (b. March 14, 1879, d. April 18, 1955) was a physicist in the late 19th and early to mid 20th century.
History
Albert Einstein's portrait at far right.
Einstein was a theoretical physicist who developed his Special and General Theories of Relativity to explain physics of the universe in the modern day.
Emmett Brown had a portrait of Einstein in his garage and even named his dog Einstein.
On June 13, 1931, Marty called out to Einstein by name. Emmett Brown figured that Marty (who claimed to be from the patent office) gave him that name since Albert Einstein was also a patent clerk.
On October 12 of that year, Marty, wanting to get a heartbroken Emmett Brown out of depression, claimed that he didn't have the guts to follow his dreams, and dismissed his aspirations as daydreams. Emmett responded by pointing out that Thomas Edison, Albert Einstein and Dr. Frankenstein all had daydreams, and went on to make great accomplishments.
Behind the scenes
- Doc's portraits are of Isaac Newton, Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Edison and Albert Einstein, each of whom can be said to contribute to his development of the DeLorean time machine in the form of physics, conservation of charge, electrical invention and the space-time continuum.
- The last words of Albert Einstein will never be known. He spoke them in German and the nurse who was attending him at the time didn't understand a word.
