As we know, the strong nuclear force is about 10 41   times stronger than the gravitation force [26], p. 89, also see Fig. 7.
Since the gravitation force is ( and varies?)  in proportion  to the gravitation constant, it must, according to the CTH, at the Planck time have been larger than today by the factor (t1/tPL) 2/3 = (4,7  . 10 17/ 5,4  . 10 -44 )2/3  » 10 41 i. e., it was identical with the strong nuclear force at that time, as demanded by the Super string theory. This surprising result  even gains in fascination  if we link the strength of both these forces to their respective range of action.
The strong nuclear force Fs has a range of action of re » 10 -15 m (Yukawa radius). As mentioned, its strength  is by the factor 10 41 larger than that of today's gravitation force. The gravitation force  FG has an infinite range of action or, to be exact, a range of action which comprises the total universe (R1 » 10 26 m). If we now multiply both forces by their ranges of action  re or, respectively, R then we receive the surprising result (also see Fig. 7 below): Fs . re = FG . R                (8)
Therefore, at the Planck time, the universe had approximately the size of an elementary particle ( also see Fig. 7below).
