Grand Unified Theory and Supersymmetry
An abstract, non‑material theoretical construct—phrased as 'Grand Unified Theory and Supersymmetry'—invoked as scientific shorthand during a brisk corridor exchange. It has no physical form, no materials, and no measurable size; it exists as a cluster of ideas, equations, and rhetorical weight. Characters touch it verbally: Sonya lets the phrase pull her into metaphysical awe, her urgency sharpening around the prospect of such an ultimate explanation, while Geordi answers with steadying human presence. The phrase operates like a catalyst in conversation, altering tone and accelerating choices rather than occupying space.
