…really philosophically articulate about the significance in any degree to compare with Einstein's thinking. And he had his associates like Max Planck and others who were brilliant in their thinking. But Einstein will be the most outstanding of them. And I'll…
…say, well, that rocketry is vastly faster than the eye. But we haven't thought about the significance as Einstein did and Max Planck are the significance of the measurement of the speed of light. Because suddenly we had a radar, and whereas 15,000, 20,000…
…general systems theory. I'll point out to you that The physicists became very powerful when they discovered, as Einstein and Planck did, when the speed of light was measured. They said they thought that the classical scientific world was thinking inadequately…
…is where the word spending came from. Spending was abhorred, because it was going to make everybody get poorer quickly. Now, Einstein and Planck said, now that we see there's a speed of light, and it takes eight minutes for the light to come to us from…
…find that energy then, this light and radiation has a speed. We have to reassess our universe altogether. And Einstein and Planck, in effect, these are not their words, but I've paraphrased large amounts of thinking. In effect, they said, our universe is…
…it's an unintelligent question. It simply shows a complete lack of the significance of the information that was found by Einstein and Planck. It's going to take a little time for this to be disseminated. But in a sense, it was a surprise factor where…
…created or being lost. Therefore, the attitude had to be entirely new towards the phenomena energy. And the Einsteinian and Planck viewpoint and the associates of those men was then suddenly that the energy is conserved. The physical energies are conserved.…
