Beyond Strings

brain melt

Maybe you feel a bit like this image right now. If you're confused, that's a good sign. The universe is a daunting and fascinating and incomprehensible place. With all these microscopic and macroscopic interactions happening around us and within us without our knowledge, it's easy to feel like you're blindfolded and strapped to the side of a rocket hurtling towards something you can't see. But as string theory teaches us, there is great value in accepting the limitations of our relative blindess and finding creative ways to look beyond and embrace the mystery.

I hope that these pages offered some insight into the worlds of string theory, quantum mechanics, general relativity, and physics as a whole. I'm certainly not going to offer the best, clearest, fullest, or most accurate explanations. What I can do is add to the existing body of knowledge in ways that make sense to me, and I hope, to you.

Until next time,
Ella.
