(April 23, 1858 – October 4, 1947)
Notably savvy, Max Planck is among the most astute scientists of his generation. His Quantum Theory was not just revolutionary. It opened a whole new avenue for our understanding of both the atomic and the subatomic worlds. Hence, it is no surprise that some of the greatest mavens of his era struggled to discern the underlying concepts. Even the great Albert Einstein rejected some aspects of it: and ended-up losing the ensuing argument to Niels Bohr at the home of Paul Ehrenfest in December 1925. Thus far, in 21st century, (more than a century after Planck propounded his theory), no scientist can honestly claim to fully understand what Quantum Physics entails. Leading researchers such as Max Born, Erwin Schroedinger, Werner Heisenberg, Satyendra Nath Bose, Wolfgang Pauli, Paul Dirac and Pascual Jordan have achieved fame and won accolades, (including Nobel Prizes), just by advancing a small aspect of what Planck originated. He is also credited with enhancing our knowledge regarding how objects absorb and emit radiations. His support for, as well as contributions to Albert Einstein’s Relativity Theory, enabled it gain acceptance in Germany and in the wider world. Planck’s other works pertained to optics, entropy, thermodynamics and statistical mechanics. Like his compatriots, Karl Weierstrass and David Hilbert, he was an early supporter of women’s tertiary education. Lise Meitner is among his illustrious students. In addition to Planck’s constant, Planck units, and Max Planck Medal, he is the eponym of the 39-kilometer-wide Planckia asteroid and the 319-kilometer-wide Planck lunar crater.

I came across your SAPAVIVA website. POWERFUL!
The admin of this site is doing great job. Soon it will be renowned for its feature contents.
You can earn bucks monthly ’cause you’ve got awesome contents.
Awesome! Planck discovered and theorized about one of the most complex aspects of physics.
Helpful tips, thanks.
Wow! Imprеssive jօb all the way!
It’s quite informative
A cool website through and through!
Hello, I have checked your blog and have seen why you rank high in google.
Maximum respect to Max Planck and his groundbreaking contributions.
I’m enjoying every post here.
Hats-off to the Quantum man!
I like this website and will be back for more.
Planck had great insight.
Concise yet comprehensive 😁
Great read!
Outstandingly ahead of his time!
We shall use this as a first step in exploring all the buzz about quantum.
Planck frequently bent backwards to help others.
Much respect to one of my greatest favorites.
What a perfect website!
I will surely come back again.
Great – I should definitely acknowledge the obvious. Which is to say that I’m impressed with all that this web site offers.
Thumbs up 👍
Not one, but double thumbs up 👍👍
Planck was awesome
Very good blogosphere
A lot to be proud of.
You’re right.
How nice! 😉
Thanks for that info about Bohr winning the debate against Einstein.
Added Sapaviva to my bloglist.
I love your writings very much.
Just a quick heads up for his quantum leap.
Bravo Planck
Quantum Physics is full of wonders.
