In 1905, Einstein unlocked a mystery of light that seemed almost impossible, unknowingly laying the foundation for smartphone cameras, solar panels, burglar alarms and technologies yet to comeAlbert Einstein explained the photoelectric effect in 1905. This interaction of light and matter powers many modern devices. His theory rev...

In 1989, a 185-page California climate report warned that a warming would slash the state's spring runoff by a full third. 30 years later, its warnings proved right, with mountain snow cover falling by half as droughts, floods and fires worsenedCalifornia received climate change warnings thirty years ago. These projections accurately predicted droughts, floods, and heat waves. The ...
