Albert Einstein:
Albert Einstein (14 March 1879 – 18 April 1955) was a German-born theoretical physicist who developed the general theory of relativity, one of the two pillars of modern physics (alongside quantum mechanics). Best known for his mass–energy equivalence formula E = mc², often referred to as “the world’s most famous equation,” he was awarded the 1921 Nobel Prize in Physics for his contributions to theoretical physics, particularly for his discovery of the law of the photoelectric effect, which played a crucial role in establishing quantum theory.
At the beginning of his career, Einstein realized that Newtonian mechanics was insufficient to reconcile classical mechanics with the laws of the electromagnetic field. This led to his development of the special theory of relativity. Later, he extended the principle of relativity to gravitational fields, leading to his general theory of relativity in 1916. Throughout his career, he contributed to statistical mechanics, quantum theory, and the motion of molecules. His research on the thermal properties of light laid the foundation for the photon theory of light. In 1917, he applied general relativity to model the large-scale structure of the universe
Christopher Columbus:
Christopher Columbus (born between 31 October 1450 and 30 October 1451 – 20 May 1506) was an Italian explorer, navigator, and colonizer from the Republic of Genoa, in what is now northwestern Italy. Under the patronage of the Catholic Monarchs of Spain, he completed four transatlantic voyages, leading to European awareness of the American continents. His expeditions and efforts to establish settlements on the island of Hispaniola marked the beginning of Spanish colonization in the New World.
During the age of western imperialism, European kingdoms competed for wealth by establishing trade routes and colonies. Columbus proposed a westward route to reach the East Indies, an idea that was eventually funded by the Spanish Crown. In 1492, instead of reaching Japan as intended, he landed in the Bahamas, naming the site San Salvador. Over the next three voyages, he explored the Greater and Lesser Antilles, the Caribbean coast of Venezuela, and parts of Central America, claiming them for Spain
Mahatma Gandhi:
Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi (2 October 1869 – 30 January 1948) was the foremost leader of Indian nationalism during British rule. Using non-violent civil disobedience, he led India to independence and inspired civil rights movements worldwide. The honorific title “Mahatma” (meaning “great-souled” or “venerable”) was first bestowed upon him in 1914 in South Africa and is now recognized globally. He is also affectionately called “Bapu” in India.
Born into a Hindu merchant family in Porbandar, Gujarat, Gandhi studied law at the Inner Temple, London. He first applied non-violent resistance as a lawyer in South Africa, fighting for the civil rights of the Indian community. After returning to India in 1915, he organized farmers, peasants, and laborers against excessive taxation and discrimination. As leader of the Indian National Congress, he spearheaded movements to reduce poverty, expand women’s rights, foster religious and ethnic harmony, abolish untouchability, and, most importantly, achieve Swaraj (self-rule)
Leonardo da Vinci:
Leonardo di ser Piero da Vinci (15 April 1452 – 2 May 1519) was an Italian Renaissance polymath, excelling as a painter, sculptor, architect, musician, mathematician, engineer, inventor, anatomist, geologist, cartographer, botanist, and writer. His immense curiosity and boundless creativity epitomized the Renaissance humanist ideal. He is widely considered one of the greatest painters of all time and possibly the most diversely talented individual to have ever lived.
Art historian Helen Gardner described him as “superhuman,” while Marco Rosci argued that his vision was rooted in logic rather than mystery. Leonardo’s empirical methods were revolutionary for his time. His masterpieces, including “The Last Supper” and “Mona Lisa,” continue to be celebrated. His scientific studies and engineering designs were far ahead of his time, influencing both art and science for centuries to come.
