Parallel universe leaking into ours

[blm]

We may have just, for the first time ever, caught a momentous glimpse of a parallel universe bumping against our own.

Scientists say that signals from the furthest reaches of space suggest that the fabric of our universe is being disrupted by another universe.*The discovery could provide proof of the multiverse theory, which says that there are many alternate universes.

This kind of shit while amazing is almost to vast for the human mind. In certain subjects like Quantum Physics the more you learn, the more you realize how little we understand. I'm watching "the physics of light" on netflix and it seems like once we solve a problem in the Quantum world 3 more problems pop up. It's never ending and it doesn't follow the same rules. There will be no simple and beautiful equation to answer the quantum world.

Haha, Physics of Light. I was watching that one the other day too with my sons.

It's a good series but I have to laugh at the translation. It's originally Japanese or Korean and has been translated into English. The way the narrator talks louder over the original is hilarious. Little slow paced but does a good job at helping people understand things. I didn't realize the way we figured out light bends is because we were able to see other stars directly behind the sun. This would have been imposable if light did not bend around objects.

Agreed, the deeper you ponder, the more complex it becomes.

[Scrumhalf]

Yeah, the story is that Einstein predicted that mass bends light and this was then verified during a total eclipse when a star that would have been normally behind the sun was visible because the sun bent the light from that star that was going past the edge of the sun so that it was redirected towards Earth.

The hallmark of a good theory is making testable predictions that can then be experimentally verified.

The third of the 3 Basal Assumptions. :thumb:

Assumption 1:
I assume that the phenomenon (the world as I perceive it through my senses) and nounomenon (the world as it exists) are one and the same.

Assumption 2:
I assume that the world is intelligible (that we can learn things from interacting with the world).

Assumption 3:
I assume that models with predictive capability are of more value than models without predictive capability.

I wanna know one thing...do they have donuts? :grin:

[Scrumhalf]

Well, one of the theories is the universe is in the shape of a torus, so in a sense, you are living IN a donut! See Beast, you should be happy as a pig in mud now! :D

[BEAST]

Well then as soon as we are able to travel I'm gone! :grin:

[TKD]

So is the theory that there is s whole in the middle of the universe or it just gets smaller towards the middle of the donut? Does that mean the space outside our universe is another universe shaped differently to fit into that space?

[Bouncer]

I don't know about a hole in the middle of the universe but I do know there is a black hole at the center of every galaxy. IMO, on the other side of each of those black holes is a new big bang and a new universe being created. This is unproven but it would certainly add something to the question of "how can the universe come from nothing".

Come to think of it, my theory would have to mean there is a hole at the center of every universe as well, not just galaxy. :D
