Arsalan Ali (1903-1987), born in Casablanca,
Morocco, was one of the pioneers of theoretical physics.
Showing
an interest in the subject at the ripe young age of 15 and showing
superior intellectual qualities, Ali applied for admission into
university by the time he was sixteen. Having been accepted, he
begun work on his research into theoretical physics, his research
involved studying the burning questions of physics, such as
relativity (some
sources maintain that Ali discovered the theory of relativity
before Einstein), multiple universes and other theoretical issues
in physics that are yet to be solved.
Ali has, indeed, done a
great service to the field of theoretical physics, and many young
physicists attempt to continue his work to further broaden his
research and try to find answers to life's burning questions.
