| “ | "Is that Einstein?" "Yes, doctor, the man most responsible for our enemies technological superiority... the man who made them invincible. - Gregor and Cherdenko, before Einstein's erasure. | ” |
Albert Einstein was a theoretical physicist who made significant contributions to the Allied war effort. He was instrumental in making the Chronosphere a practical weapon. In the Red Alert Timeline, he was later erased from the timeline by Cherdenko.

[edit] Biography
[edit] Altering the Past
Einstein was involved with a United States project based at Trinity, New Mexico in 1946. Einstein used the project to travel back in time to 1924. There the scientist met Adolf Hitler upon the latter's release from Landsberg Castle. Einstein removed Hitler from the timeline.
[edit] Second Great World War
The Second World War as Einstein knew it was avoided but was replaced by another against a burgeoning Soviet Union. Einstein's reputation was preserved in the new timeline and his expertise much sought after. He was captured by the Soviets for work on a new propulsion system. He was subsequently rescued by Allied forces.
Back in Allied hands, Einstein worked to perfect a control system for the Chronosphere. He also lent his expertise in assessing the Soviet Iron Curtain.
Einstein penned the work called A History of Allied Weaponry.
[edit] Third Great World War

By the beginning of the Third World War Einstein was established in a Black Forest laboratory in Germany where he continued work on exotic technologies. After the nuclear threat to Europe from the resurgent Soviet Union was neutralized Germany released Einstein's expertise to the Allies. Among the new weapons derived from his research were the prism towers and tanks, the Mirage Tank, and the Weather Control Device.
Einstein directed the Allies to deploy the Chronosphere in the Florida Keys.
[edit] Altering the Past Again
The Third World War was followed immediately by what Einstein termed the Psychic Dominator Disaster. Einstein's prototype Temporal Displacement Device was used to send a messenger back to the beginning of the Third Great World War and galvanize the Allies to the threat posed by Yuri's Psychic Dominators.
Yuri had Einstein captured and sent to Egypt to help accelerate the deployment of the Psychic Dominators.
Yuri moved quickly to accelerate his plan. Einstein was captured and taken to Egypt for this purpose. The scientist rigged the local Psychic Dominator to explode before being rescued by the Allies.
[edit] Soviet Response to Yuri

The Soviets also sought to pre-empt Yuri's scheme. They stole Einstein's prototype time machine and returned to the beginning of the Third World War. This time the Soviets prosecuted a successful attack on Einstein's Black Forest lab and destroyed the Chronosphere. This led to the Allies' defeat.
[edit] Einstein Erased
Einstein's time machine inspired the Soviets to create their own. With defeat imminent the Soviets used their device to travel back to the Solvay Conference in 1927 and erased Einstein. As a result the Third World War was changed with the Soviets on the verge of victory.
Einstein's removal forestalled the development of nuclear weapons.
