Thanks la-luna Funny you should say that... the Quantum does include string theory. In fact, the Star represents string theory! How weird is that? I know what you mean about the card backs too - illustrations of strings and superstrings are usually shown as these kind of wiggly loops. In the Quantum Star, the woman is supposed to be symbolically allowing the strings to flow from her fingers. It's a kind of representation of how string theory offers the hope of a deeper and more unified understanding of the physical universe.la-luna said:love the Star
I very much like the backs too it reminds me of the illustrations in popular scientific articles illustrating the string theory
BTW, here's the source image for the Star on the Hubble website - it's called the Helix Nebula:
