Using two HST images, astronomers from Italy and Germany looked for but did not find evidence supporting a prevailing scientific theory that says time, space and gravity are composed of tiny quantum bits.

"We took out a slide from our collection, and held it very close to the telescope. We did not see any 'quantum bits.'"

With apologies to Niven & Pournelle:

Physicists were so busy trying to behold the mote in God's eye, without considering the Planck in their own.

This is the one I saw. I had to go fix dinner and left it to my son to read. Forgot to come back and read it myself.

This topic is from 2003, and is not about string theory per se, but very likely will be of interest.

Poincare’s hypothesis was proved. The universe must be spherical, unbounded, and finite if topology reflects reality. That is reference to the bubble graphic at the top.

Huh? By solving for m, you "invert" the theory, lol? Who exactly wrote this tripe?
