In regard to the "multiple universes" that string theory predicts: is it not possible that we are simply moving continuously from one universe to another in every passing micro-micro-micro-instant, that is to say that there are not "parallel universes," as we usually think of them, but that we are in fact participating in all of them all at once--existing in every time and every space all at one time with the illusion of passing through time and space
ST is a bunch of untestable crap spun up so a few people can collect paychecks because nobody else can do the math. Nothing tangible is even predicted to become of this. At least you can watch this lady. Not like some skinny, rude chicks who bounce back & forth while they screech at you.
@MultiUniv3rsal yeah 5th graders can understand 11 dimensions, individuals with masters have trouble completely comprehending the depth. If it is so simple, write your paper, I am sure scientific digest would love to publish it!
@MultiUniv3rsal Because GR and QM are logically consistent & have made a plethora of predictions which have been confirmed experimentally, & have never been shown not to work in their appropriate domains. String "Theory" is, strictly speaking, not a theory at all, but an elaborate *hypothesis*. Theories are hypotheses which have made predictions which survived experiment. The String Hypothesis has made no testable predictions. String Hypothesis, the front-runner, might be true. Or it might not.
@MultiUniv3rsal I just came across your year old comments - and i completely agree. I totally enjoyed the first lecture she did, but I enjoyed it with my two daughters (10 & 12) in mind! Now I just have to come up with a devious plan to get them to sit through it. Something that works is keeping them up past their regular bed time with the invitation 'come and watch this!' :)

Why is this subject considered so advanced?
You could legitimately be teaching these principles in layman's terms to 5th graders.
At the very least they won't all leave high school content with their outdated cosmological model?
I understand that the mathematical solutions require an extreme discipline and a skilled mathematician, but the idea is very simple to convey.
This audience is way too old to be learning about strings and sub-atomic particles with cute power-point slides.
