Confirmed: Einstein's Theory of Relativity Is Not Wrong

According to a report published by the International Science Times, scientists at CERN - the European Center for Nuclear Research - admitted that Albert Einstein was right about the theory of relativity.

The famous theory was challenged when a group of CERN researchers presented the results of the OPERA (Oscillation Project with Emulsion t-Racking Apparatus) study last year, revealing that neutrinos - elementary subatomic particles - could reach a speed faster than light.

Einstein was right

The news has caused a real turnaround in the scientific community, as most modern physics is based on Einstein's Theory of Relativity. However, according to Sergio Bertolucci, director of the Center, the researchers found a problem with one of the fiber optic cable connections used in the study, causing an error of 0.00000006 seconds in time measurement.

After taking new measurements, scientists admitted that neutrinos do not actually exceed the "cosmic speed limit", although they continue to be considered fascinating particles that may be the key to unraveling why the universe has more matter than antimatter. .
