String Theory, similar to quantum mechanics, is based completely on mathemaical equations and complete physics. Wherein the math might be flawless, without empirical evidence and experimentation, these theories remain theories.
Understandably, the interest in String Theory has rose greatly over the past 2 decades following Bohrs atomic model and the next Quantum Mechanics. But you must realize that the dilema of Schrodinger's Cat best exmplifies all theories and physics reasoning beyond what is physically unobservable with any instrument.
I commend physicists for venturing into Sting Theory because they risk a lot studying something that is so difficult to quantify. Compared to some other literature I have read concerning String Theory, this particular flash does a good job explaining although it conflicts with other observatinos on the subject. With so much disagreement among scientists, how can we hold one theory as more valid above another when there is no evidence?
Oh well, its very confusing. At the very least, String Theory is a intriguing idea which had me interested all of last year.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
