Einstein failed to solve the Universe. Here’s what it would take to succeed. | Michio Kaku
Description
If Einstein couldn’t solve the theory of everything, could anyone? Physicist Michio Kaku explains what it would take.
Albert Einstein spent the last 30 years of his life pursing a “theory of everything,” aiming to find a concise equation summarizing the fundamental laws of the Universe. His downfall? Subatomic particles.
Physicist Michio Kaku offers an alternative to Einstein’s elusive theory: “string theory.” We could try to explain it, but he does a much better job. After all, he’s one of the co-inventors of it.
If you aren’t sold on string theory, Kaku breaks down the three criteria needed to figure out what makes our Universe tick: it must incorporate Einstein’s theory of gravity, explain particle physics, and be mathematically sound. No pressure.
