The '''Theory of Relativity''' is a 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). It has been repeatedly confirmed by experiments.  Criticism of the theory, however, caused physicist [[Robert Dicke]] to be denied the [[Nobel Prize]] for his flat-out denial of what has been experimentally confirmed.  It is unlikely tenure or a Ph.D would be awarded to any critic of the theory for the same reason.
