How many of you believe in string theory?

Question

Well I do and I cant wait until Cern will come up with evidence to support the theory.I would love to see the answers of the names below.

Spaceguy,Bobby,Mercury2010,Brant,Michael,Campbelp2002

Thank you all in advance.I wish everyone a happy new year in excellent health.

Answer 1

I am EAGERLY awaiting CERNs results as well. I heard they should be up and running in march (I think) I'm a strong believer in string theory and hope that the information received proves it works.

But keep in mind, I'm also just excited to get ANY information.....
(quite a historical moment if you ask me. I'd like to go to say maybe Genevra, Switzerland the day of its first test)

this will be the first way we have found to test if string theory works and thats a huge step just in technology and our understanding of particles and even existence.

if we prove it then GREAT!

but if we disprove it then at least we KNOW and can move on to other hypothesis.

I wonder how long it will take to sift through all the info once its up and operational in march

brants a great guy, but practically as good as the LHC with trying to slam string theory into pieces.

be careful out there people, there are other drunk people on the roads. (I'm taking the bus)
Happy New Year!!! (the cern year)

Answer 2

I take it provisionally with some optimism. However, it may take decades to confirm or refute. So I take quite a bit of it with a BIG grain of salt. However, it involves considerably less contradictions than Relativity theory. What it lacks is an effective and testable theory of gravity. The Relativity theory of gravity is well-known as well as the Quantum mechanics theory of gravity. Both versions prove that gravity is simply as mysterious and misunderstood NOW as 2000 years ago. It's the most mysterious force in the Universe. String or its companion M-Theory may have something of a big improvement here. One just has to suspend judgment and await further breakthroughs. Right now, I'd rather know if Mars has now, or ever had life on it, than if String theory is true or not. The life sciences are my venue, and my knowledge of mathematics, while high, is insufficient for String Theory.

Answer 3

Hey Superman;

I would like to see this move forward myself,
I believe there are some very good things about it although I do not quite understand the whole theory myself but I have read enough about it to grasp the concept, I believe that it would in fact answer many things we now dont have the answer to,..

So I do believe in the concept yes and only time will tell..

Happy new year to you;

Mercury I hope so as well but as I mentioned im still struggling to catch up with it all, Damn thing is so huge,, Mind boggling to me but sounds like you have it down to an art,

Answer 4

well it is a very viable theory, i sure do hope it's true....

Answer 5

I've read quite a bit about it and watched some great videos and tv programmes....there a lot of money being spent on this. It seems it might all be coming together as "the theory of everything" after all. 11 dimensions! I find it difficult to get my head round this!

Happy New Year to everyone.

Answer 6

Makes sence to me, much better than the god made the earth in 6 days crap.

Answer 7

Hi. I consider it one of a few theories that may work out, but I am a doubter until it predicts something which proves to be true.

Answer 8

i dont believe in anything that is not proven yet.

Answer 9

I do, what little I understand of it. The mathematics is well and securely over my head. But the "Idiot's Guide" dumbed down versions seem to offer some elegant solutions to long-standing physics questions.

Answer 10

I do
