So I am tired of seeing snow. All it has done In Denver for the last week is snow. 24 inches last week, another foot today, and probably an additional foot or more is on the way tomorrow. <br /><br />Oooohhhh space.com message board, thanks for being here to keep me happy <img src="/images/icons/smile.gif" /><br /><br />Anyways, I have recently begun to read about String Theory, which seems to be known as M Theory in more modern times. It is amazing that these vibrations of energy are what might make up all matter in the Universe.<br /><br />After scientists first discovered that atoms are not the smallest things in the Universe, the desire to discover the smallest things in existence became huge. What makes up everything in the Universe? If an atom is not the smallest, what makes up an atom? What makes up the things that make an atom?<br /><br />I think it is hard for humans to imagine something being made up of nothing, so how can atoms and qwarks exist without being made up of anything else? <br /><br />String Theory has been a radical, theoretical discovery, because it might give us these answers.<br /><br />One thing I'm not sure about is if Strings and Quantum Vibrations are the same thing? Or are they two completely different things? <br /><br />This is a topic that I am not familiar with. Although I understand the basics of it, I have never really gathered much knowledge on the subject. <br /> <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p> </p><p><strong><font color="#ff0000">Techies: We do it in the dark. </font></strong></p><p><font color="#0000ff"><strong>"Put your hand on a stove for a minute and it seems like an hour.
