To be fair, from the outside at least, a lot of string theory looks like adding epicycles as well.

- CydeWeys 6y agoYes, that is a common view amongst most physicists.
- auntienomen 6y agoI disagree, it's not a common view. It's common for physicists to think string theory might be empty theorizing, but it doesn't look at all like epicycles. With epicycles, you start with an existing model and than add complexity. That's not strings. Strings starts with something entirely new, that's already complex.
