By the end of the year, Luma changed their name to Unified Theory, named after Albert Einstein's final hypothesis unified field theory. By 2000, Unified Theory signed with Universal Records subsidiary 3.33 Music Group while
Fundamental interaction within a Grand Unified Theory (GUT). A bigger challenge is to find a way to quantize the gravitational field, resulting in a theory of quantum gravity (QG) which would unite gravity in a common theoretical framework with the other three forces. Some theories, notably string theory, seek both QG and GUT within one framework, unifying all four fundamental interactions along with mass generation within a theory of everything (ToE). In his 1687 theory, Isaac Newton postulated space as an infinite and unalterable physical structure existing before, within, and around all objects while their states and relations unfold at a constant
