Pi Day is an annual celebration of the mathematical constant
π (pi). Pi Day is observed on March 14 (the 3rd month) since
3, 1, and 4 are the first three significant figures of π, and it
was first celebrated in the United States. It was founded in
1988 by Larry Shaw a physicist at the San Francisco science

pie or holding pi recitation competitions. In 2009, the United
States House of Representatives supported the designation
of Pi Day.

On March 14, 1879, Albert Einstein was born, the son of
a Jewish electrical engineer in Ulm, Germany. Einstein’s
theories of special and general relativity drastically
altered human understanding of the universe, and his
work in particle and energy theory helped make possible quantum mechanics and, ultimately, the atomic bomb.
