One of the most important characteristics of thermodynamics is the fact that it is, like all the other important laws and equations of modern physics, dynamic, that is, always in a state of change and flux. It is this characteristic that was incorporated into the theory of relativity by Einstein as an apt description of the relationship that takes place between energy and all the different forms of matter.

Albert Einstein’s famous equation of E = mc2 is based on the fact that the entire quota of energy in the universe is constant. Taking on from the four laws of thermodynamics, Einstein proved beyond a shadow of a doubt, that matter can never be destroyed whatever the source or method of friction is. It can only take on a new form.

Of all the laws of thermodynamics, the second law of thermodynamics is the one that is closest to explaining the strong bond between the two theories of thermodynamics and relativity. In fact, this basis of the similarity of thought processes and the role of energy is also a major factor on which a number of scientific activities are carried on. The twin theories are also a strong platform on which modern day rocket science as well as the various researches and studies on space and time travel are based on.
                               

One of the most important terms which is instrumental in connecting the twin theories of science, relativity and the various laws of thermodynamics is that of entropy, which in turn stresses the natural irreversibility of any of the different forces of energy present in and around the universe.
