Also, how does M-Theory differ from the original Strong Theory?

I am aware of the supposed ten deminsions that the String Theory consumates, but how does M-Theory differ? I am knew to the theory, and I don't quite understand how it is different.

In detail!!!!!!!!!!!
In brief - we exist is a multiverse, our universe is one of a possibly infinite number of universes who differ from one another by the values of the physical constants that operate in each one eg speed of light, gravitational constant etc. The set of such universes is of the order 10 to the power 100, and this is called 'the landscape'.
These universes (ours is 4D) exist embedded on a 10D brane (visualise as a membrane) which in turn occupies an 11D bulk with many other forms of branes. It is thought that the bulk is highly turbulent. When these branes collide, another universe is created, this could be happening all the time.
I don't know about you but this bakes my noodles!

In physics, M-theory (sometimes also called U-theory) is a proposed "master theory" that unifies the five superstring theories. Drawing on the work from a number of string theorists (including Chris Hull, Paul Townsend, Ashoke Sen, Jared Farris, Michael Duff, and John H. Schwarz), Edward Witten of the Institute for Advanced Study suggested its existence at a conference at USC in 1995, and used M-theory to explain a number of previously observed dualities, sparking a flurry of new research in string theory called the second superstring revolution.
In the early 1990s, it was shown that the various superstring theories were related by dualities, which allow physicists to relate the description of an object in one string theory to the description of a different object in another theory. These relationships imply that each of the string theories is a different aspect of a single underlying theory, proposed by Witten, and named "M-theory".

Inside string theory there are different branches of the theory. Each branch has a slightly different view of string theory. The amazingness of M-Theory shows that all these different views are all part of this same underlying theory, M-Theory.
That's all I know. If you find out anything new let me know.

M, one day I lifted off the ground, I lifted off the ground using my imagination to free a people from war, North and South Koreans to be exact, and if all other countries give me $10 billion their country's people will be free from war, and gravity then was proven faster than the speed of light and lighter than oxygen... M, that's all.

Which concept are we asking approximately, known reletivity or specific reletivity. a million. e=mc2 bargains with approximately each and every little thing e= capability m= mass c= the associated fee of sunshine for example the above, the conversion of aproximately 0.6 rammes of Uranium 238 into capability became into adequate to smash Hiroshima.
