The idea for a Panama canal dates back to the 1513 and it is something that still amazes people. In my opinion the canal was a wonderful idea. It was designed and constructed by many people. My position about this canal is that the canal has been helpful for more than a century and it continues being helpful. This are some opinions I have about the panama canal that will be explained below.

By the late nineteenth century, technological advances and commercial pressure allowed construction to begin in earnest. An initial attempt by France to build a sea-level canal failed after a great deal of excavation. This enabled the United States to complete the present canal in 1913 and open it to shipping the following year. The state of Panama was …show more content…

From my discretion this construction was elaborated by many people and who ever had the idea of doing this was a human with a bunch of inspiration. I think that if the panama canal would never exist the world would be different.

There are 3 reasons that show the importance of the theory of relativity. First the impact of the research into general relativity is still felt today. Second without it we would not have GPS on our phones and in our cars. Finally our understanding of the Big Bang and black holes would also be different.

The research is incredible, because it is really difficult to understand and it has helped us a lot. This theory has helped us with almost everything, but mostly to understand time and space. Even a century later, this theory is still reshaping how scientists think as they search for the theory of the everything. The basis of general relativity describes how mass and space are related to each other and states that matter can bend and warp the fabric of space and time due to the effects of gravity. Well another thing that the theory is helping us is with the …show more content…

The birth of the known universe has been a problem that has stumped scientists for centuries. Einstein's theory similar suggests that the universe, or the so-called space-time metric, is expanding and that is what cleared most of the doubts of the scientists. Without Einstein, this fundamental piece of physics that underpins much of how we understand our universe today would have been far harder to unravel and that leads us to black holes. Black holes are among the most mysterious objects in our universe - concentrated wells of gravity from which nothing, not even light can escape. But without this we would have never benefited from the wild imaginations of science fiction writers as they speculated what lies beyond a black hole.

Maybe without Einstein's theory 3 important things for humanity wouldn't exist now. Two of them are the GPS technology and the Big Bang and black holes understanding. The last one is the incredible thing that most of the scientists are still astonished by the theory. In my opinion without Einsteins relativity theory we would be
