Life is a math equation. In order to gain the most, you have to know how to convert negatives into positives. And nothing can be explained more beautifully than the story of Vashishtha Narayan Singh, Bihar’s maths genius who challenged Einstein’s Theory. Read the story of this Indian man who challenged Einstein’s E=mc2 theory.
Vashishtha Narayan Singh was born in a village in Bihar’s Basantpur district in 1942. He came from a police constable’s family. Furthermore, he completed his schooling at Netarhat School in Jharkhand, followed by higher studies at Patna Science College. He was the topper in both his BSc and MSc exams in successive years. Later, in 1964, he topped the UGC’s unified JRF.
Singh went on to collaborate with esteemed institutions such as NASA, IIT, and the University of California, Berkeley. Soon, his life took a dramatic turn due to mental illness.Singh’s intellect gained international recognition, with some even claiming that he challenged not only Einstein’s theory, E = MC², but also Gauss’s theory. He was awarded the status of ‘Genius of Genius’ by Berkeley University.
A popular tale about him says NASA brought him in to handle calculations when their computers stopped working. Another story claims he contributed to a project during the Apollo missions, playing a role in NASA’s mission to land a man on the moon.
