If String Theory Cannot Be Proved--Can It Be Disproved? Yes!
If String Theory Cannot Be Proved--Can It Be Disproved? Yes!
What's the big deal? By definition, no theory can be proved true and all theories can be proved false by failing testable predictions. The real question is, is String theory a theory? Is it testable? If it doesn't make testable predictions, then it's not a theory.
