Photoelectric effect Memes

Everyone remembers Einstein for his Theory of Relativity, but his Nobel Prize actually came from explaining the photoelectric effect! Just like this cat getting completely distracted by a string, the scientific community sometimes fixates on the flashy theories while the Nobel committee goes "Actually, we're more impressed by that other thing you did." Classic scientific plot twist - Einstein's most famous work wasn't what got him the fancy medal. The cat's wide-eyed fascination perfectly captures how mind-blowing the photoelectric effect was - proving light behaves as both waves AND particles. Revolutionary stuff that literally changed physics forever, even if it doesn't get the same spotlight as E=mc²!
