About this Quote

String theory is an attempt to explain the basic nature of the universe by looking at bits not as factors, but as little loops of vibrating string. This theory was proposed by Edward Witten, a popular physicist. String concept suggests that the universe is made up of little strings of power that shake at various frequencies. These strings are thought to be the building blocks of matter, as well as the various frequencies of resonance determine the homes of the fragments. String theory also recommends that deep space has greater than 3 spatial dimensions, which could describe why gravity is so weak compared to the other essential forces. String concept is a facility and also highly mathematical concept, and also it is still being researched and also established. It is an interesting location of research study, as it might potentially give an unified concept of all the essential pressures of nature.
