The cover page of 2010 shows an abstract picture of the so‐called string landscape. It is known for some time that, although string theory seems to be unique in ten or eleven space‐time dimensions, a vast number of solutions pops out upon compactification to lower dimensions, in particular to fours space‐time dimensions.
