One of the biggest quest at present is the quest for the Unification Theory. For the uninitiated, this is the theory that ties together the General Theory of relativity, and Chaos Theory. The former holds true for large bodies but not at the quantum level, whereas the latter holds true at the quantum level but not at the large bodies level.
The latest unification theory being worked actively is String Theory, but I can't help but think that this concept is too complex to be related to nature, which after all is what we are studying!!!! I have a theory that I have not published, or indeed spoken to anyone about, as I do not have any contact with the field of physics, but here goes.
I believe that the mass of an object effects the speed that time travels in its location. There it is, out in the open!!!! Let me explain in simple terms. If you were to view the entire history of our galaxy from start to now in a second the viewer would witness something that looked chaotic, whereas if you looked at the destruction of atoms in the study of quarks where the entire process was slowed down to the extent that it took the lifetime to date of our universe to complete, then it would look neutonian. In this case both Theories would be correct dependent on the relationship between your mass and the mass of the object being viewed.
The thing that started me thinking along these lines was a Terry Pratchet Discworld novel. In the story mountains were alive but they moved so slowly that humans believed them to be inanimate. From the Mountains perspective, humans were just a brief annoyance, chaotic.
Any of you guys want to talk to a madman!!!
