"The bar for what constitutes experiment has been lowered though. :’)"

True enough. But don't overlook this key fact: Desperate times call for desperate measures.

It seems clear to me that String Theory is long overdue for something, anything that can help verify all this math. Just because your theory is pretty just isn't good enough for me. I'd like to see something that either proves or disproves the whole concept.

Worth reading:

They’re utilizing mathematics derived from M-Theory exploration. That’s a start, and if I recall correctly, I think there are at least two other such studies.

Something said by the late great physicist Paul Dirac has always sortta haunted me: “It is more important to have beauty in one’s equations than to have them fit experiment.”

Beauty in the sense of symmetry.

I believe that neither beauty nor truth can exist, one without the other.

Funny, isn’t it?, that these are also characteristics usually associated with God.
