Throughout our history space-time has generally been explained as what the name represents. As in, space-time means the relationship between space and time. This generality is not helpful in the process of learning and understanding space-time. Therefore, it is necessary to look beyond its original definition to find out what spacetime really is. Accordingly, in further studies, the space-time continuum is linked to a special theory of relativity. However, the space-time continuum is where space and time are combined into one mathematical/physical thing because the equations of relativity show that both space and time must mix to accurately describe what we see. In 1906, Albert Einstein created the theory of special relativity. The theory explains how it understands movement between different inertial reference frames, that is, places that move at constant speeds relative to each other. He explained that when two objects move at a constant speed the relative motion between the two objects, instead of appealing to each other as an absolute frame of reference that defines what is happening. Einstein's theory is based on two things: the principle of relativity and the principle of the speed of light. The principle of relativity is one in which the laws of physics do not change, even for objects that move inertially (constant speed). The principle of the speed of light is the same for everyone, regardless of their movement relative to the light source. This involves thinking about what happens to time as you approach the speed of light. The answer is that time slows down, a phenomenon called time dilation. Furthermore, the mass increases as it moves faster as it approaches the speed of light. However, as a result Einstein… half of the paper… deluded that time and form convert into each other in a way to keep the speed of light constant, which Einstein declared as the special theory of relativity. As a result, an article by Einstein entitled "space-time" was included in the 13th edition of the Encyclopedia Britannica in 1926. The special theory of relativity was created by Albert Einstein in 1906 and he used the theory to discover and connect it to space. -temporal continuity. The space-time continuum is that space and time are combined because the theory of relativity shows that both space and time must mix to truly define what we see. In gravitational time dilation, time flows faster with less gravity. This affects the theory because the larger the object, the slower time passes. In conclusion, it is thanks to Einstein's theory of Special Relativity that the space-time continuum was discovered.
