This is true of experimental physics, but in mathematics you can prove things, and I believe that his theory of general relativity was proved mathematically. Unfortunately, it could never be reconciled with quantum mechanics to give us one overiding theory for the universe. I think the week link is QM, which was never proved, but also has never failed is experimental tests.
