Abstract
We show that the general solution of the Einstein-Dilaton-antisymmetric-ten sors field equations of all superstring theories exhibits a chaotic oscilla tory behaviour of the Belinskii-Khalatnikov-lifshitz type near a cosmologic al singularity. This result indicates that superstring cosmology is much mo re complex than is assumed in the scenarios presently discussed in the lite rature.
