Summary/Abstract: Philosophical bases of Einstein's conception of space-time and motion, as a crucial development of knowledge in this field of mathematical physics and cosmology based on it, presuppose a difference between theoretical statements of Euclidean geometry and non-Euclidean geometries, as well as their relations towards the science of physics and cosmology. That constitutes the foundation for differentiation between Newtonian classical conception of space, time and motion, and the conception of these notions within the theory of relativity.
