Energy Equals Mass Times The Square of The Speed Of Light

Sounds like Einstein's big idea, doesn't it?
I beckoned that this epoch-making equation deserved mention in my blog - the only thing in Physics that stumped me, left me clueless. As the big daddies of science say, the more you know, the more inquisitive you get. In my case, finding out how this equation was discovered, and how it turned the scientific world upside down, rose my curiosity to such an inextricable level that I could not live without knowing the truth, even for a day. Day and night of research over the Internet, heated discussions with my Physics professor and after-school study sessions with almost all my friends finally paid off, and I finally knew. I finally knew, that it takes over 30 years of sedulous hard work to get to something as big, as revolutionary as the concept itself, and barley 30 seconds to misuse it.
