Features: Do you believe that the universe is composed of extremely small strings, and that there exist more dimensions beyond the three-dimensional space where humans live? In recent years, the "superstring" theory has become one of the most active and exciting branches of physics, attracting the attention of many renowned physicists. They claim that the "superstring" theory is a comprehensive theory that can uniformly describe all forces, all fundamental particles of matter, and spacetime. On August 22, 1996, People's Daily and Guangming Daily published an article titled "US Scientists Believe Physics is with 'String Theory' as a Symbol," comparing "string theory" with quantum mechanics and Einstein's theory of relativity.
