      ab: This article explores the contributions of Greek philosopher Plato to the string theory. It points out that the underlying belief of Plato's physics seems sound even if its specific details are wrong. It notes that the mathematical and reductionist approach still seems the best way of understanding the universe. Particular focus is given to the progress made by current cosmological and mathematical thought experiments.
