  • Resumen

  • In this episode renowned theoretical physicist Edward Witten explores the sweeping arc of String Theory — from its birth in the 1970s to its current status at the edge of modern physics to its dramatic revival as a candidate for a unified theory of all fundamental forces — including gravity.

    String Theory faces today — its mathematical beauty contrasted with its lack of direct experimental evidence, and the deep conceptual puzzles still surrounding the landscape of possible universes.

    What do these inconsistencies reveal? Are we at the edge of a deeper framework — perhaps beyond strings? And how have recent developments, including holography and connections with quantum field theory, reshaped the field?

    Whether you're a seasoned physicist or just curious about the quest for a Theory of Everything, this is a conversation you won't want to miss.
