The Universe Explained
Last week, I was watching a programme on Stephen Hawking called "Master of the Universe", as well as some YouTube videos by him called "Origins of the Universe". Apart from being inspired by his brilliance and tenacity (he types at something like 3 words a minute), it got me reflecting on the current state of thinking about "unified theories" of the universe.
I wrote a slightly tongue-in-cheek poem called "The Universe Explained", which starts:
According to scientists
The world's made of string
That buzzes and fuzzes
Or some such strange thing
The full poem is posted on my website at: www.waynevisser.com/poem_the_universe_explained.htm. Although the poem is a bit of fun (especially the twist in the last stanza), those who know a little about the latest scientific unified theories may spot that it is not as much nonsense as at first it appears to be.
