hey /sci/, is there anyone here who can describe to me the theoretical nature of each of the 11 dimensions of the M-theory (you can skip over the first four).

Cheers!

You know, string theory is the most mathematically beautiful theory... But when you start creating a shit ton of dimensions just to make the math that beautiful, then something is very, very wrong.

Beauty is an accepted criteria for quantum physics. The more beautiful equations are generally more correct.

That's true. But when you create conditions for the equations to be correct, doesn't it kinda... seem suspicious?

Physicists and Mathematicians manipulate initial conditions and assumptions all the time. If the equation is more beautiful, I don't really see a problem with thinking outside the box. Hell, it is quantum.

But beauty is found in simplicity.

Stop wasting time on String Theory, I mean super string theory, ah fuck I mean M-theory...

String theory is horse shit. Don't subscribe to it.

Have they come up with any testable prediction yet?
