Its hard to imagine string theory while watching beach balls having sex...Thats my theory anyway...

Today, many physicists believe matter (including atoms themselves) to be made up of the tiniest things of all little vibrating strings. If this were the case, the theory would dictate that these strings be somewhere around the Planck length, which is thought to be the smallest possible size in existence, somewhere around ** a millionth of a billionth of a billionth of a billionth of a centimeter **. To these things, atoms might seem as large as the entire universe is to humanity.

@guysoft42 Ancient religions have a connection with this theory, the ancient Vedas say there are infinite universes and it explains so much more, it covers the whole science.

omg i'm actually dying at the humping each other comment

@wowsa0 idk. I wasn't completely sure. It would make sense if protons and neutrons were made up of quarks, that there would be more than just 3 or else they would have been found quickly. But now i guess im assuming that just because there are fewer that they are automatically larger. Im gonna have to look that up now. I knew 3 types of quarks went to each but didn't really think about how many there were inside of each.

@BudoScience I'm pretty sure there are only three quarks inside each proton and neutron.

@MissLucyBoomer As far as I understand it, String Theory proposes that quarks ARE strings, as this video shows. Previously, the fundamental particles were considered as dimensionless points, but string theory says that they are 1 dimensional 'strings', which are not just thousands of times smaller than the atom, but many times over again.

This is the just the impression I've got from reading things like wikipedia anyway.

@MissLucyBoomer

Thousand billion time smaller*

quarks are also smaller too but whatever.

@MrMcVilla

Strings are thousands of times smaller than an atom. There isn't just one big string inside every quark.

Kudos on being mature by the way.
