His work led to the development of quantum theory, which describes radiation in terms of packets of energy instead of waves. Planck's Constant relates the energy of a packet, or quantum, of radiation to the frequency of the radiation. The Planck Time was the moment immediately after the Big Bang when our present laws of physics began to apply. 1858 Born on April 23 in Kiel, Germany. 1867 The Planck family move to Munich, Germany, where Planck is educated at the Maximilian Gymnasium. 1874 Planck studies mathematics and physics at the University of Munich. 1877-78 He studies theoretical physics ...
