The eternal physicist's pipe dream: "Trust me, SU(37) will fix everything!" Theoretical physicists have been chasing the elusive Grand Unified Theory for decades, each time swearing that a bigger, more complex Lie group will finally explain all fundamental forces. Meanwhile, they're casually requesting billions for colliders that would need to encircle entire countries. The beautiful symmetry visualization is hypnotic, but so is watching research funding disappear into increasingly abstract mathematics that's always just about to revolutionize physics. Forty years later, we're still waiting for that breakthrough that's supposedly right around the corner... if we just build one more massive machine.
Just One Bigger Group To Unify Them All
