    Einstein and Eddington

    Awesome film indeed
    8.5 from me


    Einstein+and+Eddington.jpg


    Einstein would have been a liar and despised as a lunatic old man if it wasn't for one true English gentlemen.

    Eddington

    It was the time that German killed thousands of Englishman using chlorine gas.

    Not just his faith towards God and Newtonian science, Eddington had to risk his reputation as he was trying to validate a theory of an German scientist not to mention it'd falsify Newton's gravity theory.

    Wish I could recommend to any viewer. And its certainly not boring.

    Once again brit producers have shown their colors way above Hollywood artists

    I was surprised to find this movie as a lecture of our university and not in this thread !

    the gas they used in Gas chambers is Zyklon B.. not chlorine bro...

    from wiki..

    "At the same time Eddington receives news and grieves for the death of Marston among the 15,000 killed by German use of chlorine gas at the Second Battle of Ypres"...

    the movie refers to use of chlorine gas in battles, not in gas chambers..

    "The first killing agent employed by the German military was chlorine. German chemical companies BASF, Hoechst and Bayer (which formed the IG Farben conglomerate in 1925) had been producing chlorine as a by-product of their dye manufacturing. In cooperation with Fritz Haber of the Kaiser Wilhelm Institute for Chemistry in Berlin, they began developing methods of discharging chlorine gas against enemy trenches."
