Take a few physics courses and you’ll realize that the man was on the next level of genius.
What he is “known for” isn’t a tenth of what he actually did to advance the world of physics.

He described relativity as "a beggar, wrapped in purple, whom ignorant people took for a king." In support of his statement he cited a number of experiments he had conducted, he said, as far back as 1896 on the cosmic ray. He has measured cosmic ray velocities from Antarus, he said, which he found to be fifty times greater than the speed of light, thus demolishing, he contended, one of the basic pillars of the structure of relativity, according to which there can be no speed greater than that of light.
That's some next level stuff. Or lies. Whichever.
