http://galileoandeinstein.physics.virginia.edu/ Insightful on-line full listing of the lecture notes on two major changes to our way of thinking in physics it includes extracts from Galileos journals and supplemental applets. From a course at the University of Virginia that explores two revolutions in our perception of the universe.

http://jean-luc.ncsa.uiuc.edu/Exhibits Exhibits on recent developments in numerical relativity, space-time wrinkles, Schawrzchilds wormhole, black holes, gravitational waves, focussing on progress made in 3D black hole evolution. Progress in development of black hole initial data, apparent horizon boundary conditions, adaptive mesh refinement, and characteristic evolution, also features simple images of an expanding Universe.

http://www.history.com/topics/albert-einstein The German-born physicist Albert Einstein developed the first of his groundbreaking theories while working as a clerk in the Swiss patent office in Bern. After making his name with four scientific articles published in 1905, he went on to win worldwide fame for his general theory of relativity and a Nobel Prize in 1921 for his explanation of the phenomenon known as the photoelectric effect.
