Prepare to feel like crap:
Albert Einstein published 4 articles in 1905 called the Annus Mirabilis papers. These four works, as
below, changed the world's views on space, time and matter:
The article that was pivotal for the development of quantum theory: on a heuristic viewpoint concerning
the production and transformation of light.
The article that provided empirical evidence for the atomic theory: on the motion of small particles in
stationary liquid.
The article that shed light on special relativity: on electrodynamics of moving bodies.
The groundbreaking article with the famous formula equating energy and mass (E=mc2): does intertia of
a body depend on its energy.
Albert published all of the above in a single year, when he was just 26 years old.
