In this respect, the set differs from anything encountered in nature, where the fundamental particles provide a final absolute scaling.
Will we ever come to an end in our understanding of the nature of matter, or is there an infinite regression into more and more fundamental particles?

In this theory, instead of fundamental particles being points, they are vibrating multidimensional loops.
In particular, it will tell us just how the microverse relates to the macroverse, giving us the precise parameters for the dividing line between the small-scale quantum world of atoms and fundamental particles, and the larger-scale classical world of specks of dust upwards to galaxies and so on.

Human beings were embodied, ultimately, in fields of fundamental particles.
