| Nearing Official Disclosure? Physicists Saying 'Hello To The Multiverse Where Strange Creatures Graze On Alien Worlds'
Recent discoveries like this suggest space may have inflated to an infinite extent after the Big Bang. Physicists believe that the inflationary process was capable of creating matter as well as space, in similarly infinite quantities. In which case, go far enough and you will see an exact “repeat” of the stars and galaxies we see around us, including another planet Earth and another you – and every variation thereof, including worlds where Elvis lives, where Hitler won the Second World War, and where strange creatures like unicorns graze on alien pastures. This is a respectable idea. “To get rid of that conclusion,” Tegmark says, “either inflation is wrong … or space is in fact not infinitely stretchy.” The multiverse “zoo” gets ever more bewildering. Some physicists believe that inflation happens all the time, and that an infinite number of “bubble universes” are being spawned, of which ours is only one. One interpretation of quantum physics states that every “quantum event”, such as the decay of a radioactive atom, causes a new universe to split off and grow in a new direction. |
