Personally I think string theory is way off the mark. Mathematically it is able to predict the existence and properties of new fundamental particles. But in terms of telling us what nature is, it’s wrong, and I think this has something to do with special relativity. Using the rules of special relativity string theory is constrained to one-dimensional strings. They tried developing it with 3-dimentional blobs, but it failed to comply with the rules of Einstein's relativity.
Maybe Einstein’s concept of spacetime is wrong and a 3-dimensional blob theory would give us a better understanding of how the universe works.
Myself, I just believe in 3-dimensions of space and a separate time dimension. I can’t see how the universe can have more than 3-dimensions of space.

In reality there are an infinite number of <b><i>dimensions</i></b>. We just use 3 axes to describe them in terms of XYZ. There are an endless number of <b><i>directions</i></b> emanating from the 0,0,0 nucleus and a positive coordinate for every negative one.
If someone finds a direction which I have not seen, please advise me at once for I would certainly like to explore it.

If you stand in one place, the distinct number if directions in which you can point is endless. I consider these directions to be 'dimensions' which are described relative to 3 axes, XYZ. The axes are not "dimensions" they are axes by which we may describe an infinite number of dimensions.
