New Delhi: Can super scientist Albert Einstein be proved wrong? Ask anyone, his reply will be a straight no. But here is someone who is hell-bent on proving Einstein wrong.
She is 14-year-old astrophysicist from Kozhikode. Her name is Hannan Binth Hashim and she is claiming to prove Albert Einstein wrong.
Hashim is a student of X standard. She is all set to deliver her lecture on astrophysics at Universities of Boston, Chicago, Texas, and Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Hashim will also deliver lectures at 17 other institutes across the world.
An aspiring astrophysicist, Hashim is a mathematical researcher. She has prepared a research paper titled ‘Absolute Theory of Zero'.
The research questions the accuracy of many existing theories like Albert Einstein's ‘Theory of relativity' and the ‘Big Bang Theory'.
Dr Soumya Vasudevan, a Hind Rattan award winner is Hashim's mentor. Her work will most probably be published in ‘American Journal of Theoretical Physics' soon as the work is under consideration of the esteemed Journal.
Hashim said that Absolute Theory of Zero is a new mathematical system that explained the established theories in a different light. Through the theory she has explained that the speed of light is not constant always.
Former President A P J Abdul Kalam, scientists at IISc and IIMSc have appreciated the works by Hannan Binth Hashim. Her works have also brought laurels to her from many leading research institutes around the world, including NASA.
She recently participated in the NASA space camp where a model rocket designed by her was launched.
She is likely to meet US President Barack Obama during her trip to US for participating in the Siemens Westinghouse Science and Technology competition for high school students in October 2009.
Her theory is wrong because experiments show that the speed of light is constant. If one experiment would show it, the theory has to be abandonned. That's science. Exceptions are not tolerated in a theory.
i'm 14 how come i'm not an astrophysisct??/ :(
I didn't drink the kool-aid! -- PM
like the irqi boy, this girls needs to be appreciated
Yes, and my 4-year old solved Fermat's last theorem... In 3 simple steps.
wat is it with teenagers and math
first the iraqi guy that solved the bernoulli formula and now her
This same article is all over the internet BUT:
* The only references to the "American Journal of Theoretical Physics" on the internet are in this article (posted on multiple websites). If it's so important, wouldn't it have a presence on the internet.
* Lots of kids attend NASA Space Camp, and I'm pretty sure designing rockets is a pretty standard project there (notice it does not say the rocket was launched into space, most likely just launched up into the air)
LOL
