Here in Northern Ireland we are celebrating our first ever Science Festival and as a part of our first ever Science Festival a street in Belfast has been named after the scientist who put Einstein right. Bell’s Theorem Crescent The name celebrates his seminal 1964 paper, more formally known as On The Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen Paradox, which demonstrated that Einstein’s views on quantum mechanics were flawed. John Stewart Bell is arguably the greatest scientist to ever come out of Northern Ireland and was nominated for the Nobel Prize before his premature death in 1990. Northern Ireland has an incredible scientific legacy and John Bell deserves to be celebrated as a physicist of global significance and a phenomenal role model for young people!!

You want a physicist to speak at your funeral. You want the physicist to talk to your grieving family about the conservation of energy, so they will understand that your energy has not died. You want the physicist to remind your sobbing mother about the first law of thermodynamics; that no energy is created in the universe and none is destroyed. You want your mother to know that all your energy, ever vibration, every BTU of heat, every wave of every particle that was her beloved child remains with her in this world.
