Science is the process that takes us from confusion to understanding.

Brian Greene

I like to think that Einstein would look at string theory’s journey and smile, enjoying the theory’s remarkable geometrical features while feeling kinship with fellow travelers on the long and winding road toward unification.

Sometimes attaining the deepest familiarity with a question is our best substitute for actually having the answer.

How can a speck of a universe be physically identical to the great expanse we view in the heavens above?

Science is a way of life. Science is a perspective. Science is the process that takes us from confusion to understanding in a manner that’s precise, predictive and reliable – a transformation, for those lucky enough to experience it, that is empowering and emotional.

The beauty of string theory is the metaphor kind of really comes very close to the reality.

Instead, a faint mist of light will fall for eternity through an ever colder and quieter cosmos.

In quantum mechanics there is A causing B. The equations do not stand outside that usual paradigm of physics. The real issue is that the kinds of things you predict in quantum mechanics are different from the kinds of things you predict using general relativity.

The number of e-mails and letters that I get from choreographers, from sculptors, from composers who are being inspired by science is huge.

And putting together the probabilities of quantum mechanics with the certainty of general relativity, that’s been the big challenge and that’s why we have been excited about string theory, as it’s one of the only approaches that can put it together.

$Brian Greene Quote - That is, you can have nothingness, absolute nothingness for maybe a tiny fraction of a second, if a second can be defined in that arena, but then it falls apart into a something and an anti-something. And that something is then what we call the universe.$

In the far, far future, essentially all matter will have returned to energy. But because of the enormous expansion of space, this energy will be spread so thinly that it will hardly ever convert back to even the lightest particles of matter.

I’d say many features of string theory don’t mesh with what we observe in everyday life.
