- Is hoped to be vindicated as The Theory Of Everything
- Related to M-Theory
- Suggests the possibility of eleven spacetime or more dimensions
- Includes both open and closed strings
- Also known as superstring theory
- Has yet to be proven true or untrue
- Suggests that there are 11 or more dimensions

In string theory it is believed that elementary particles, one dimensional string like objects, make up the entire universe around us. String theory is still developing, but as technology advances, scientists are able to accurately test some of the claims made by string theorists.

String Theory Questions
Does string theory suggest that dark matter is a particle? 1 Answer-quote- A big complicating factor in understanding string cosmology is understanding string theories. String theories and M theory appear to be limiting cases o... read more
How does M-Theory help unify string theory? 1 AnswerMembrane theory or the M-Theory came into picture after string theory failed to explain the origin of the Universe. Mathematically, it just adds an addition dim... read more
What are the known higher vibrating strings according to super string theory? 1 AnswerNo strings have been observed directly (my personal opinion is that cosmic strings are more hypothesis than theory at this point). Strings are thought to manif... read more
Does string theory adequately explains gravitons existence and how they influence gravity? 1 AnswerGravitonsWhen describing graviton interactions, the classical theory (i.e. the tree diagrams) and semiclassical corrections (one-loop diagrams) behave normally,... read more
