Albert Einstein (March 14, 1879 - April 18, 1955) was a German-born physicist.

He is most known to the general public for his theory of relativity. However, he was also a popular-culture figure, with his public stands, humor, and distinct appearance. A person may be compared to Einstein if he or she is being particularly bright, or hear the name used sarcastically if he or she isn't.

Einstein, both overtly and with thinly-veiled substitutes, has appeared in many fictional Sci Fi works.

Sci Fi Uses

• Professor Jacob Barnhardt in The Day the Earth Stood Still is very reminiscent of Einstein
