Change Quote by Kip Thorne
“We have to have a combination of general relativity that describes the warping of space and time, and quantum physics, which describes the uncertainties in that warping and how they change.”
About This Quote
Source Speech: Nobel Prize Lecture, Kip Thorne, 2017
Combining general relativity and quantum physics is needed to fully describe how spacetime bends and fluctuates.
In simple terms: Both theories together explain spacetime behavior.
