Gratitude 10/26/07

Today I am grateful that someone is able to explain string theory in two minutes.

Columbia University physicist Brian Greene recently chose the winner of the String Theory in Two Minutes or Less user-generated video contest. Post recommended by Linz via Calvados.

I'm not sure string theory will explain the foundations of the universe, but it's one of the mind-stretching things that I enjoy trying to wrap my brain around.

This video is not entire correct. String theory is yet to be proven and there are dozens of scientists disagreeing with each other about the finer details. While it is a good introduction, it is however just that - an introduction into an emerging theory.
