Actually, it's not even really easy for us to conceptualize basic physics. Even an electron is difficult; we have no direct experience to compare a reality smaller than the photons we use to construct a visual representation of it.
In some ways, I feel like physics is starting to become a little more like religion though, and honestly some theories seem like they're stretching to find explanations that fit within our concept of beauty or symmetry or simplicity. Not that I'm a detractor of String Theory, but arguably we are getting into territory where it's likely we can neither prove nor disprove further possible explanations. I guess the biggest thing that bothers me though, is that most people would seem to prefer existence be somehow dependent on the phenomena of life rather than vice-versa.
