String theory is the idea that the building blocks of nature are made up of tiny, one-dimensional strings of energy rather than point particles. According to the theory, these strings vibrate at ...

It's one of the most brilliant, controversial and unproven ideas in all of physics: string theory. At the heart of string theory is the thread of an idea that's run through physics for centuries, that ...

An early attempt to explain the concept of extra dimensions came in 1884 with the publication of Edwin A. Abbott's Flatland: ...

String theory found its origins in an attempt to understand the nascent experiments revealing the strong nuclear force. Eventually another theory, one based on particles called quarks and force ...

Does string theory excite you? Mathematically, it holds up. Aspects about it suggest not one but several different dimensions, ones we're not generally privy to, though we may be interacting with some ...

Some string theorists predict at least 10 dimensions, most of which humans can’t perceive. | Andriy Onufriyenko/Moment/Getty Images Ask someone to name every ...

When someone mentions "different dimensions," we tend to think of things like parallel universes – alternate realities that exist parallel to our own, but where things work or happened differently.

String theory, one of the most complex theories in the scientific community, may also be the "Theory of Everything" — a framework that explains everything in the universe. While still theoretical and ...
