    "abstract": "The major advances in physics have been through counterintuitive\nbreakthroughs-- ideas that seemed to go against prevailing convictions. In the\ntwentieth century the Special and General Theory of Relativity and Quantum\nMechanics have provided very good examples of this process. However, twentieth\ncentury physics has led to an impasse, one of the most important unsolved\nproblems being the unification of gravitation with other interactions. This has\nled to another sacred tenet of physics, viz., spacetime as a smooth manifold,\nbeing questioned in latest approaches, be it Quantum Super Strings or other\nQuantum Gravity and similar theories. In particular spacetime described by an\nunderpinning of Planck scale oscillators is investigated.",
