Taiwan joins global light relay in Einstein's honor
At 7pm last night, Taipei 101 was lit up with the most famous mathematical formula in the history of science -- Albert Einstein's E=mc2 -- in commemoration of the extraordinary physicist's death.
That lighting ceremony was also carried out in nine other locations across the country as part of a global relay of light, "Physics Enlightens the World," to promote physics and pay respects to one of the 20th century's geniuses.

Other lighting events took place in eastern Hualien County, southern Taiwan and even on Yushan, the nation's highest mountain.
