We discuss the prospect of studying physics at short distances, such as Planck length or GUT scale, using supersymmetry as a probe. Supersymmetry breaking parameters contain information on all physics below the scale where they are induced. We will gain insights into grand unification (or in some cases string theory) and its symmetry breaking pattern combining measurements of gauge coupling constants, gaugino masses and scalar masses. Once the superparticle masses are known, it removes the main uncertainty in the analysis of proton decay, flavor violation and electric dipole moments. We will be able to discuss the consequence of flavor physics at short distances quantitatively.
