Is This Anti-De Sitter Space In The Room With Us Right Now?

String theory physicists are basically the conspiracy theorists of the science world. They're sitting in this interrogation-style room wondering if "anti-de Sitter space" is secretly lurking around them like some invisible boogeyman. For the uninitiated, anti-de Sitter space is a mathematical construct in string theory with negative curvature—something you definitely can't see with the naked eye, yet theorists spend decades obsessing over it. The paranoid expression on their faces is priceless—like they've stumbled onto the universe's biggest secret but can't prove it to anyone outside their theoretical physics bubble. Classic case of "my equations say it's there, so it must be!"
