Einstein won the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1921 because of his great work. This is a very special prize that is given to people who do excellent work in science.

In the 1930s, Einstein moved to the United States. He was worried about the safety of Jewish people in Germany because of the government there. He lived in the United States for the rest of his life. he became a citizen of the United States.

Albert Einstein died on April 18, 1955, in New Jersey, United States. He was 76 years old. He died because his heart was weak. People remember him for his important science work and his love for learning about the universe. He inspires scientists even now.
