Testing Einstein's E=mc2 in Outer Space
UA physics professor Andrei Lebed has stirred the physics community by suggesting that Albert Einstein's iconic equation, E=mc2, may not hold up in certain circumstances. To test his finding, Lebed has proposed an experiment using a space probe carrying hydrogen atoms away from Earth while a detector records "jumping" electrons.
