German theoretical physicist Max Plack died #OTD in 1947. Planck made many contributions to theoretical physics, but his fame rests primarily on his role as originator of the quantum theory. This theory revolutionized our understanding of atomic and subatomic processes, just as Albert Einstein’s theory of relativity revolutionized our understanding of space and time.  He won the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1918. via @Britannica
