>>13288478"Poincaré made clear the importance of paying attention to the invariance of laws of physics under different transformations, and was the first to present the Lorentz transformations in their modern symmetrical form. Poincaré discovered the remaining relativistic velocity transformations and recorded them in a letter to Hendrik Lorentz in 1905. Thus he obtained perfect invariance of all of Maxwell's equations, an important step in the formulation of the theory of special relativity. In 1905, Poincaré first proposed gravitational waves (ondes gravifiques) emanating from a body and propagating at the speed of light as being required by the Lorentz transformations."
"Hendrik Antoon Lorentz (/?l?r?nts/; 18 July 1853 – 4 February 1928) was a Dutch physicist who shared the 1902 Nobel Prize in Physics with Pieter Zeeman for the discovery and theoretical explanation of the Zeeman effect. He also derived the transformation equations underpinning Albert Einstein's special theory of relativity."
"The now-famous Michelson–Morley experiment also influenced the affirmation attempts of peer Albert Einstein's theory of general relativity and special relativity, using similar optical instrumentation. These instruments and related collaborations included the participation of fellow physicists Dayton Miller, Hendrik Lorentz, and Robert Shankland."
It's pretty fuckin weird how all these wiki articles seem to indicate that all these dudes did ground breaking work that setup the infrastructure of GR & SR yet got literally 0 credit from Einstein himself... it's almost like Einstein was being a jew about it or something.
Oh wait! He was!
Btw, I've got a M.S. in Nuclear Engineering from Penn state, one of the most prevalent jokes in the physics department is how much of a fuckin jew Einstein was.
