Ever wonder how Einstein proved E=mc²? This is how.
Pi day (3.14) is Albert Einstein's Birthday! To celebrate, we'll explain 4 of his most groundbreaking papers from 1905, when he was just 26 years old.

energy (in joules) = mass (in grams) multiplied by the (speed of light)^2
mass = energy
at the speed of light squared

Though the first one is possible, the latter is certainly true.

I've always asked myself this question: Why is c a variable? The speed of light is a constant, but is it because c^2 is a ridiculosly large number? Or is there another reason?
