The '''theory of relativity''' has been repeatedly contradicted by experiments, such as precise measurements of the advance of the perihelion of Mercury that show a shift greater than predicted by Relativity, well beyond the margin of error.  Criticism of the theory, however, caused physicist [[Robert Dicke]] to be denied the [[Nobel Prize]], and it is unlikely tenure or a Ph.D would be awarded to any critic of the theory.

The '''Theory of Relativity''' is a popular theory of physics, that proponents argue is the best way to discribe the universe at speeds of near light speed (299,792,458 meters/second).

 

'''Relativity''' refers to two closely-related mathematical theories in [[physics]]:
