A radical theory that consistently unifies gravity and quantum mechanics while preserving Einstein's classical concept of spacetime has been announced in two papers published simultaneously by UCL (University College London) physicists.

    I rolled my eyes until I saw where this was published. Huh, that’s interesting. I’m way too uneducated to know what this means, but maybe the science peeps I follow will post some vids in the coming weeks.

      The headline on this should be that the theory is actually testable.

        Yeah, of what I could follow, that was the most interesting part. In addition to the history lesson of the beef between scientists!

      Sounds like it should be, and it would have to produce results that line up with experiments at least as well as the standard model.
