Einstein was a revolutionary scientist, possibly for the first time in the several hundred years that transpired following Sir Isaac Newton's discovery of, and ability to express in mathematical terms, the gravitational laws of motion.
Today's theoretical physics research has stalled. Most leading theorists lack the combination of traits that made these great
** ability to express new effective representations of physical systems
** physical intuition-based postulation of principles
** deep knowledge of issues without distortions
** imagination and conceptual power
Nobody knows, but that's determined after, not before the fact. Einstein didn't appear in a vacuum, either.
The statement that theoretical physics research has stalled is, just, wrong.
Each generation builds on the work of the preceding one. What Einstein invented was groundbreaking; quite rapidly it was and is taught at universities and everyone can learn it (though it appears that, even today, many people haven't).
Physics went on after Einstein, it didn't stop with him.
Social media lead people to expect news about discoveries and insights at a rate that, simply, can't exist and never existed.
People that complain that things have stalled should work and propose their ideas-then they'll find that it's not that easy. On the other hand, it's never been easier to publicize any crazy idea, it's just a volume effect, that it doesn't attract the ``attention'' its creators think it ``deserves".
Science isn't a spectator sport.
No, Einstein's erroneous theory of relativity has led physics to a dead end. It is unknown how long it will take to get rid of his theory, which has turned into an indestructible dogma, a "sacred cow". See my article

No. Because we have surrendered to Him.
What he came up with is beyond our imagination. The idea that electromagnetic waves contain photons is illogical. And we could not solve this puzzle.
But there is a fact, when the frequency of electromagnetic wave increases, its magnetic force increases. The same is responsible for the photoelectric effect. No one knows this yet. Do the experiment if you can and you will know what the truth is. You will be the next Einstein. This is beyond our theory of electrodynamics.

Yes, Ghanshyam Jadhav the theory of the photoelectric effect was Einstein’s wonderful achievement, rightly marked by the Nobel Prize. But his name is primarily associated with the special and general theories of relativity, they are usually considered to be the main scientific contribution of Einstein. This is what I consider as a deep delusion.
Yes, Lev Verkhovsky and Philippos Afxentiou the theory of the photoelectric effect was Einstein’s wonderful achievement.
But my observation is that increase in frequency of any EM wave causes to increase its magnetic force.
This fact is responsible to produce the photoelectric effect.
It means there are not any kind of photons in the light or any EM wave.
This is beyond the theory of electrodynamics.
Who will confirm experimentally will be the next Einstein.
Should we ignore it?
Philippos Afxentiou
I am currently trying to revive the theories of Einstein, Planck and others. I find that their works can only be called eternal. But how eternal? First, if a subject that remains misunderstood or that does not yet have a solution in physics comes from the fact that these theories of Einstein, Planck and others are not fully understood at the present time. For me, these physicists have planned everything in their theories! Strangely, even they don't know that they have planned everything. Why am I saying this? Well because I discovered that the constants of these physicists hide other constants, in particular cosmological constants which once discovered, these so-called hidden constants can be used to discover an ultimate theory of physics, so Einstein and Planck are the best of all time past, present and future!
I am afraid that the Einstein of the 21st century has already been born!
Mohamed Javanshiry,
Don't be afraid of Einstein, he was a "monster" in physics only. I said that there will be no new Einstein because the "real" Einstein for me discovered everything in these equations knowing that he does not know it and it is up to people to better understand the real details of his work, if there will be a new one, who knows, maybe I will tell him that he will not scare anyone!
I corrected his relativistic electron mass equation to show how it can go beyond the speed of light. The equation shows if it is done in the imaginary domain, the mass is reduced and no longer becomes asymptotic towards infinity at speed of light velocity. This in turn is shows how mathematically, one can theoretically travel through wormholes beyond the speed of light. This is the piece that Einstein missed.
