Why is String Theory potentially scientific and not merely wishful thinking? What its Feynman's definition of science?

String theory to me is that all objects in our universe are composed of strings and membranes of energy. Ive herd that string theory is the theory of everything, relatively young science.Scientist believe that sciences will eventually come together, or in one way or another link to eachother. Gravity and quantum physics link together. I dont believe its wishful thinking because there is a theory that gravity quantum physics work together.Feynman was a very interesting man and he was known as one of the best scientists in the world. He always thought if he cold come up with the theory of the very small he would have the answers for the very large.

Fabric of the cosmos

What if what we percieve is wrong? Things could be so different, as different as going in reverse. What if everything you did happened in reverse,its so crazy to think about but according to physics it is possible! This video had my imagination going crazy. thinking about all the new technology and where technology is going in years to come. We have went so far and to think that in as little as a few years from now we can really be so technologically advanced. Its amazing to me how far we have come and how absolutly anything seems possible.

Eliminative Materialism: God did it?

Basically the video explains how if math, physics,chemistry,sociology,psychology and philosophy does not explain it, then god did it. Another words if all else fails to give the explanation then god did it. And saying "god did it" is a perfectly good explanation because we have nothing else to eplain it.
Watching the video made me realize that people say that very often, is it always only because we dont have the answer for why it occured? Or how something occured? Is it the right resource to turn too? After we have exhausted everything else we simply say god did it, but yet its perfectly ok with everyone and understandable by everyone.

MANY-WORLDS

I got a perfect definition describing the many-world theory from wikipedia.com. Many-worlds means that all possible alternative histories and futures are real, each representing an actual universe or world itself. Just to think that life exists outside of earth is a huge thing. If there are others living the life that we are living, or others that know about us and we dont know that they even exist.
I truely believe that if there was life outside of our lives, meaning outside of earth we would know. It would be hard to say that there is a totally different universe that exists out there. Not impossible but without evidence of such a universe we have no idea if it could be true or just pondered upon.

GRAVITATION

To me I think gravity is nothing more than what gives weight to an object with mass and causes them to fall to the ground when dropped. Gravity is responsible for keeping the earth moon and sun in place. Imagine how our earth would be without gravity?Gravity is even responsible for the formation of tides.Without gravity imagine what would happen to oceans and lakes.
Imagine how we would be without a gravitation pull? It reminds me of when I would watch people in space, like the movie Apollo 13. They have no gravitational pull and basically just float around. We would not be able to function or get anywhere if we had no gravitational pull

Re: Electricity

Electricity is a necessity and a must have! Imagine we had no electricity in this world? We would be literally lights out after the sun goes down. Not be able to watch TV or charge your cell phone, cant even be online right now because we cant charge our laptops. I cant imagine how life would be without electricity.
Well if I think of a power outage we recently had then I get a better understanding of life without electricity. Now they even have those electric vehicles, it seems like electricity is starting to become even bigger now. We are resorting to the use of electricity and its a positive thing for our environment.

ELECTRIC SURFING

Matter composes our entire universe together and it holds together in an electrical nature. Protons have a positive charge, I always somehow knew that protons were positive because they started with PRO. And electrons have a negative charge. Both charges are equal between the proton and electron, which in turn attracts because they are opposite. When electrons move we have a current.
This video showed a discription of a positive plus and negative minus, it reminded me of a battery. Then I started thinking about all the uses of a battery and how they have become a necessity in every home. And seeing the discription in the video I realized that negative and positive balance out, even in a battery we use. Protons and electrons are the same anywhere in the world, the only thing that differs in a battery is the electrochemical reaction that makes the current flow.
