This is really really really cool. String theory is very intresting and the flash is very cool indeed. Its worth finishing. Click the Imagining the ten Dimensions option from the menu to start the flash.
http://www.tenthdimension.com/flash.phpWelcome to the Tenth Dimension
In string theory, physicists tell us that the subatomic particles that make up our universe are created within ten spatial dimensions (plus an eleventh dimension of "time") by the vibrations of exquisitely small "superstrings". The average person has barely gotten used to the idea of there being four dimensions: how can we possibly imagine the tenth?
If you are a new visitor, start out by clicking on "Imagining the Ten Dimensions" in the Navigation section: you will see a set of animations, with narration and sound effects, which take you from the first to the tenth dimension. We would suggest watching them in order from zero to ten the first time... but hey, you're a creature with free will, so do whatever you'd like. The ideas in this animation come from chapter one of a new book called "Imagining the Tenth Dimension: a new way of thinking about time, space, and string theory".
