[QUOTE="James Snover, post: 16595317, member: 67454"] Both. Neither should be seen as an all-inclusive answer to how the universe works. The one, Relativity, was formulated before anyone knew much of anything about the universe at sub-atomic levels. The other, quantum mechanics, was formulated to describe specifically how matter behaves at the sub-atomic level. Both work great until you get to the edges of the theories and both start producing infinities. Both theories, like all good theories, are strictly limited in their scope of what they describe. General Relativity, our best theory of gravity, only describes what gravity does, how it behaves, what you can expect; but never mentions what gravity is, or what causes it, or why it's even there. That's beyond its scope. Quantum mechanics describes how matter behaves at the sub-atomic level, what you can expect, how you can predict things. Never says why or how any of the quantum weirdness happens. On the one hand I think the guys working like mad on Quantum Relativity are going up a dead end street, but I have hope they'll find something, even if only another little clue or observation of the way this whole universe works.
