Thanks to this snappy animated short by director Eoin Duffy, writer/producer Jamie E. Lochhead and astrophysicist Anais Rassat (with VO from David Tennant, aka the 10th Doctor), thousands of people will finally understand Albert Einstein’s theory of gravity (general relativity) for the first time since it’s publication in 1915.

Writer/producer Jamie Lochhead: “Most of us think gravity is some sort of magical force that pulls us to Earth. That’s Isaac Newton’s universe, it’s 100 years out of date. Einstein showed us that it’s warped space and time that keep our feet on the ground. It’s mind-bending stuff, but the 100th birthday is the perfect time to enjoy the genius of Albert’s masterpiece.”
