The Standard Model is based on the gauge invariance principle with gauge group U(1)×SU(2)×SU(3) and suitable representations for fermions and bosons, which are begging for a conceptual understanding. We propose a purely gravitational explanation: space-time has a fine structure given as a product of a four-dimensional continuum by a finite noncommutative geometry FF. The raison d’être for FF is to correct the KK-theoretic dimension from four to ten (modulo eight). We classify the irreducible finite noncommutative geometries of KK-theoretic dimension six and show that the dimension (per generation) is a square of an integer kk. Under an additional hypothesis of quaternion linearity, the geometry which reproduces the Standard Model is singled out (and one gets k=4k=4) with the correct quantum numbers for all fields. The spectral action applied to the product M×FM×F delivers the full Standard Model, with neutrino mixing, coupled to gravity, and makes predictions (the number of generations is still an input).
