Scenarios about 'theoretical physics'
Theoretical physics is the branch of physics that employs mathematical models and abstractions to explain natural phenomena and predict new effects. It encompasses foundational theories like quantum mechanics, relativity, and string theory, which have revolutionized our understanding of space, time, matter, and energy. In alternate history scenarios, divergent developments in theoretical physics often serve as catalysts for technological breakthroughs that dramatically reshape timelines through different scientific paradigms or earlier discoveries.
What If Einstein Never Developed Relativity?
Exploring the alternate timeline where Albert Einstein never formulated his theories of special and general relativity, potentially delaying mankind's understanding of spacetime and fundamentally altering the course of 20th-century physics and technology.
