[edit] Background
The Relativity may be named after Einstein's Theory of Relativity.
The dedication plaque for the Relativity also states that it is the seventh ship to bear the name, however its registry number suggests that it is the eighth.
The quote on the dedication plaque is often attributed to Albert Einstein, but the plaque lists it to E.M. Rauch. The plaque also shows a connection to the Temporal Integrity Commission – exactly what the link between the two is not mentioned on screen.
