String Theory

Ok... I think this new theory is way out of my students' understanding... in fact I am struggling to understand it myself! One thing's for sure... no one knows how the universe began and survives until now... Newton tried to explain with gravity... Electricity and magnetism theories seemed so revolutionary when they first appeared... Einstein searched in vain for a unifying theory... Everyone is trying to come out with an explanation of how the world is working... or rather how God works...

Have posted a link to a website that has really very nice videos narrating this string theory... Very cool videos but takes time and preferably watched over broadband... If anyone is interested to read the book... can find me... it's "The Elegant Universe" by Brian Greene
