particles aren’t the fundamental elements, but are vibrations of infinitely small strings of energy, measuring 10-33 centimeters, which is none other than the Planck length. The length of one of these pieces of string in comparison to an atom is equivalent to the size of a tree compared to the universe. Particles of matter and light that transmit forces bring together the world’s different parts so they interact with one another and change. For instance, the photon transmits the electromagnetic force, while the graviton transmits gravity. All these particles could just be the various manifestations of these strings. Just as the strings of a violin vibrate, these strings vibrate and generate tones and harmonics that are detected by our measuring instruments as protons, neutrons, electrons, and so on.
