This picture of Einstein stuck out to me due to the usual serious nature in which I picture Einstein. When talking about the extreme knowledge and impact his work had on science itself it, to me, it is releaving to see him in such a relaxed mannor. It shows that Einstein, below his wealth of knowledge, is a normal man with a great passion. While his intelligence is obvious his ability to goof off makes room for the average person to connect with him.
Science is a very tedious subject to study. Filled with bonds, chemical formulas, and fusing atoms it takes a special mind to find interest in such studys. For such a serious and impactful subject there seems to be no room for anything less then the most serious of scientists. When you are talking about less than a one percent margin of error any amount of mistakes are crucial. The picture of Eintein however shows that even in the most serious of subjects and feilds of study that one must find room for relaxation or room for humor. I believe that even the slightest laugh or joke greatly helps the minds ability to think further and without it anyone would go crazy.
Behind the serious nature of scientists themselves lies a world of laughter and humor. No one has to be serious all the time and Einstien proves it. He is arguably the most influencial man in the history of science. If he can joke around and make funny faces, so can everyone else.
