good channels like this one are only available in english.. I'm glad I can understand it, but this stuff should be in all languages
English speaking countries are the ones developed enough to have large number of citizens who think this way. Most places like Brazil and Portugal with heavy religious influence have backwards thinkers and backwards cultures
hopefully they can translate it,. it's an awesome channel
No it shouldn't this is America learn to speak English or stay out
Speak for yourself (your language)
@@youaresomeone3413 This is not America. This is UA-cam.
This continues to be my favorite Chanel of all times. So glad I found it.
SAMURAI 武士 absolutely. I’ve been down the same road. Nothing satisfied my mind more than this Chanel
SAMURAI 武士 Yes, at least he gives specific answers and does not claim to have the solution or belief in anything that does not make sense. He actually points out discrepancies and tries to make sense of things that we are told to believe in just because. I really love his style.
@SAMURAI 武士 they are also so cryptic and vague. No straight forward answers. I absolutely love this channel. And how Robert asks the real questions we normal people want to know, regardless how silly or dumb they sound etc.. great channel.
mine also!
Chanel is a fragrance.
Your voice is so soothing to listen to. I can't even count the amount of times I've turned on any one of these 30 minute to an hour and a half long, thought provoking videos to just ponder on while I drift off to sleep. Love this series!
Mr Robert is awesome and his quest takes us to frontiers where no man has stepped before.
Thank you Robert L Kahun
A Subject that I have been interested in ever since I was a Child , it is truly mind blowing !!
Once had to make a decision, was obsessed for days with it...when I finally made the decision, I STRONGLY felt, or profoundly sensed myself, separating from the Universe of the choice I did not make, and become fully enveloped in the Universe of the choice I DID make. It was decades ago, and only lasted a few seconds, yet all these years, I still remember it. Ergo, I DO believe in the Multiverse.
Quantum suicide
You put MORE emotion into that decision then most people do with marriage.. Must have DEEP meaning for you.. I hope the two of you live happily ever after..
@@billnorris1264 Exactly. That's why there is a 50% divorce rate. Re: My decision- it was decades ago, I don't recall the issue, only the experience.
@@smallbirdswhistle Physicist Sean Carroll seems to disagree with you, as do I. Everything is Quantum, including humans. If not, how do you plan to escape it? You obviously don't understand the Many Worlds theory.
@@chrisristau8803 I'm still alive in this Universe.
Extraordinarily well presented. Devoid of that certain air of charlatanism that often accompanies this subject and without the earnest preaching that marks many science-talking-heads, the content is accessible and engaging. I'm a bit surprised at how much I enjoyed the experience, as most of the actual information was reasonably well known to me before I watched. But there are some refreshing perspectives, some invitations to think and perhaps rethink, and some simple fun with the subject that makes this a great viewing for anyone even moderately interested in the concepts of the multiverse.
Exactly. I especially like that he tries to keep an open mind and discuss all the possibilities on the one hand but, on the other, is brave enough to really think everything true and come up with his own conclusions.
For some reason this episode and your comment made me so emotional and joyful!!
robert is amazing! hes like the cool uncle i never had! his love for the multiverse theory needs to be watched by more people!
Robert has one of the best jobs one could have. He gets to travel to interesting places and interview and learn from some of the smartest people around.
When the interviewee keeps talking but the music fades in and cuts them off, like a bored wandering mind
OMG I always wondered that. LOL. I love listening to this Chanel while falling asleep and always wondered about that
I like the way Paul Davies puts things out
You should read his books. They're awesome. He's good a great writing style. Complex topics are communicated to the layman in understandable terms, and he sprinkles in a little humor to lighten up these deep subjects. He's one of my favorite authors on topics I find endlessly fascinating. Like Carl Sagan said in his 1980 book Cosmos "We are a way for the Cosmos to know itself'. This Closer to Truth series is a way to bring together all the deep topics and find out what the World's great thinkers, philosophers and scientists opinions on them are. Mystical facts are far more interesting than fiction. 'We are a riddle, wrapped in a mystery, inside an enigma'.
I liked how he said that there are two states of reality that are not arbitrary: everything and nothing. Because if there is less than everything, there must be a reason why. Perhaps nothingness is just one more possibility among every possibility. Where God as the “uncaused cause” means that there is nothing to cause God to be one way over another, God is everything. Because nothingness is just one possibility among many nothingness is not chosen over something but exists as one possibility out of an infinite number all existing at once.
@@bipolarbear9917 He has excellent language and communication skills and translates some deep complex thoughts to plain english like very few other scientists. The ideas do not decay as he formulates them. I'll surely have a look at his books, cause his lectures and interviews are among my favorites in the field.
And Closer to Truth reminds me of Carls Sagan's Cosmos as well. I haven't thought about it that way, but it's a good link.
Apart of that, good fiction is as important as good science. But that's a very long argument hehehe
@@drybeanburrito I wouldn't be so sure he places a certain god between those lines even though God might be fitable everywhere depending on beliefs.
As far as i understood he was trying to state that there is probably a finite amount of possibilities for the configuration of the physical universe.
I agree with all of the comments in this thread about Physicist Paul Davies - he’s one of the most clear thinkers and writers in a complex and dense field.
I don’t agree with all his views but he’s always compelling in the content of his ideas and his expression.
One idea of his which is worth close attention is his theory of the Self-causing universe, or backwards causation as the basis to explain fine-tuning. This tracks the earlier ideas of John Archibald Wheeler’s Participatory Universe.
The multiverse is a self-comforting reason for materialists
full of possibilities...infinite beauty,countless space-time for the "WHOLE"!!!!step by step,more and more CLOSER TO TRUTH!!!!once again amazing work,mr Robert!!!!Thank you a lot!!!!>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>.
Thank you, Robert, I like your journey to find out
Even I know how it ends without answers, still I watched the whole video
Once again a fascinating presentation. Although I did have to watch Prof. Guth's segment twice, after learning the first time only that background audio can be very distracting when recorded next to an elevator shaft.
Very interesting series
The more we dig, the more Reality seems to go into crazy stuff. Why is this so?
Because reality is stranger than fiction.
@Tattletale RED meditation or psychedelics
Because the truth of reality and the universe and ourselves is so incredible that our human brain can't even Comprehend it. So it seems "crazy" when our consciousness returns home it will all come back to us. We will know every answer simultaneously at once. We already know, we just have a veil of forgetfulness while in our human body...it will lift at the time of our bodies death.
Quantum Mechanics tells us that all possible Transitions will keep happening all the Time throughout the Universe or every possible things that could happen will keep happening to expand the universe , Bubbles of Universe's . Who or what started this whole thing and how can we suggest that it was left to expand forever ? What if God Created ? Isn't He able to Control the Outcome ? What happens by accident ? Who is the architect ? The problem of Science without the Possiblity of a Designer is it suggest beyond reason that perfection or very close to it can be produced by Chaos or we are all a Lucky accident . A Very percice perfect accident from nothing to all we can percieve !
because basic and fundamental ‘reality’ is fractal in nature; it goes infinitely in all directions of concept, thought, occurrence, mathematics, physics, philosophy, etc.
the act of stuff being is fractal.
an infinite sea with no borders.
Another topic that is unknowable yet is so fascinating I think about it several times a week
Thank you.
Incredible ❤
Thank you! :)
Jean Paul Sartre said for every event there are an infinite number of possibilities and hence Universes
I for one am glad all those AD&D manuals were right after all! And the means for travelling between planes is through "color pools"...
I love this channel.
Why do some people keep insisting that the universe is infinite in size when it is literally impossibly for anything material to be infinite in size (since matter has dimensions and infinity is boundless)?
I suppose it makes sense depending on your world view. If you are a materialist and think the universe is eternal and do not believe in God, the universe could be infinite and if you accept all of those, you may have to invoke an infinite universe to make a theory of existence.
What if it is necessary for boundary conditions to exist in order to have true eternity? From the zero point to the perceivable cosmos represents a single zero point at the next level. As this level fills with all potential meeting all potential, then the next can begin.
Josh Bane nothing material can be infinite. Unless by infinite you define in some Xenonian terms as infinitesimally divisible, which I’m assuming isn’t what you mean. The material world is formed of composites which are subject to change and corruptions. Nothing which is composed can have infinitely many composites for the same reason the universe cannot be past-eternal, namely the amount of additions necessary in order to form an infinite composites is infinite thus rendering the present impossible. The total mass of the universe is known to be roughly around 10^50 tonnes. Anything changes that quantity, whereas nothing added to or taken away from infinity changes it’s value or scale. That isn’t the case with the universe.
Yes, that's been bothering me too. In another of these videos one scientist (I don't remember which one now unfortunately) even says so, too. He thinks it's just unscientific to claim that something is infinite - because you could never prove that. And I assume that it might be mathematically possible to come up with an infinite series of numbers for example, but I don't think infinity physically exists. I hope I'll still be alive when they find out that they've made a mistake calculating the curvature of the universe. Maybe I'll always imagine our universe as some finite bubble (but a very, very big one). :) (Not in the literal sense of course. But a flat and finite universe? Sounds strange to me.)
LadyFromVulcan correct. The term flat universe literally just means that the 3 dimensions of it are present.
So interesting to hear talk of traveling immense distances in a universe which occupies no space and has no mass.
Food for Thought 👍👍
But, questions can never end...
a) If You find the most/last fundamental particle... the very next question will be..."From where this last fundamental particle came?"
b) If You find God... the very next question will be..."From where God came?"
c) If You say this last fundamental particle/God existed always.... the next questions will be...
"Who/Which rule decided that the God is to be good/powerful/one etc. (Why not many Gods/less powerful God/evil God)"
"Which rule decided that the last fundamental particle will have these properties only, which it will possess...why not some different properties?"
"How can an immaterial God make something material? What is the process behind this conversion?"
What is the energy source of an immaterial thing by which it can sustain?
etc.
etc.
Therefore in spirituality/Yoga they say that we should focus on achieving Supreme Happiness (Happiness/Bliss that never goes away).
Even if we find everything in the universe, ultimately we will achieve satisfaction/happiness.
So, they say don't give much importance to knowledge (because questions can never end)...but give importance to the path which leads you to a state of default/supreme happiness, which once achieved never ever goes away..
God is nothing but this state. Once we achieve this state, they say, we are no different from God...then, we become God.
This is my own personal quote, a gut instinctual feeling I always had- " For anything to be possible, everything has to be possible ".
Did you mean a gut " instinct " 🤔
@@spaceinyourface you making a comment like this tells me a whole lot about you.
@@tac6044 yea,,,sorry,,I was stopping to your level I guess.
Well, a way more radical idea is "multiple observers exist" ;o) Each observer lives in its own private universe, the revolutionary inside is that there are multiple observers or multiple Boltzmann brains. Gedel limitations are the only selective restriction on their existence...
🤯
Rubbish.
@@ossiedunstan4419 Sure if you say so ;o)
@@stefanbanev I do , their was no evidence for this claim given just opinion.
I do think their is more than 1 universe i even go as far as saying their are multiple cosmos , but i cannot state it as fact because we do not have the tools to investigate, until that time its all just religious claims.( personal opinion and faith)
There are people who simply just believe multivrse exist and there are people who know with their wisdom that they exist. Wisdom always wins.
Robert, when you sleep and you walk on the street in your dream, does the time and space that appear in your dream really exist?
And, does the one that you are in your dream even exist? So how can you tell your life is not a dream? And if it is, who's dreaming?
Are we a part of someone's Dream ? Do we live in a video game of a Mastermind of the Universe ? Is Everything ever happening from a big bang that started Billions if year's ago and going perfectly from death to life , from a single cell to the Designer DNA foundation's of all life . Every perfect thing has a designer , nothing comes from nothing just as Everything can't come from Nothing ! Sciences Rediculous theory that everything came from something more massive than anything we can Imagine exploding Creating every perfect thing through Time . Try as many times as you want through scientific Theory to see what Comes from nothing it even perfection from a giant explosion ! We could never wait long enough to see an explosion creating the foundation's of life especially the blueprint of DNA . They speak of what they don't know denying that perfect creation can come from nothing given enough time . A Designer can only explain such design . They talk about multiple Universe's when they can't explain this one or even what causes the most simple Things just appearing from nothing .
@@valeriematson2557 I agree. Scientists can only accept material things and they seek the origination of matter in matter.
It doesn't have to be that way.
@@valeriematson2557 Something can't come from nothing. Nothing is nothing.
Nothing is without any possibillities of becoming something. Because if it is, it is already something, isn't it? For scientists 'spirit' isn't something. But for me it is.
Scientists know that conscious is crucial for matter to be observed. So their biggest issue is to find out what consciousness really is. To them it's not observable, so they would like it not to exist, but it does exist. It has no dimentions, neighter can it be localized. Still they know it's here and everywhere we look. So what if matter exist only within consciousness? And what if consciousness is conscious about itself?
Wouldn't it be more accurate, modest and thankful to say ''God must be the infinite consciousness where in everything else exists''? You tell me Valerie.
But Robert, he is good at asking questions, especially to the wrong people. But I guess it's amusing.
1_observer of my dream was conscious or unconscious 2_observer of my dream was in my dream or in universe 3_if the observer of dream still conscious if so then where?
Pls find out the truth before I quit my existence in this universe - I am soooo curious!
Tecnically this is one of the many questions that may have no way to prove whatever answer is the right one.
Children are the best people to ask such things. Their imaginations are more free and not as rigid as adults.
As an idea to understand the cardinality and magnitude of the Universum and other Universa: take the infinity of the the real numbers (R) by Cantor: there is no beginning and no end. The cardinality of R = Aleph_1. It extends from: (- Infinity via zero to + Infinity).
I will say it’s good to have multiple hypothesis to investigate. Science is what we know.
Interesting video.
Does inflation bring about fine tuning of universes similar to CMB brings about different galaxies through temperature variations, by having slight fluctuations?
There could be a planet, a planet, a whole planet of mushrooms, that be awesom
If in fact multiple universes do exist there will be trillions of them. Not a dozen or even a billion. The need for even more than one would facilitate the need for a seemingly infinite number of them. And give it is all just information anyway. Why not?
@@guidedmeditation2396 Funny Universe 😂
There is more than quadrillion, quadrillion universe out there. what about earth there is more than trillion earth out there humans look like a virus in sizes in one universe things are very very far.
@@thegreath.sapiensapien6907 If there is in fact multiple universes they will be due to the frame rate of existence. And therefore innumerable.

Ode to consciousness
Rise up!
For thou is god

And not act like a knob

Universe is the maximum synergy-of-synergies, being utterly unpredicted by any of its parts.
The reason many push the multiple universe is because most experts are very uncomfortable with the fact that if there are not multiple universes the likelihood of our current universe containing life is practically nil. This requires inventing the multi -verse to answer this statistically impossible universe we live in! I don't know if the MV exist or not but as Carl Sagan said “extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.”
Yes but some people invent "god" who sacrificed himself so he doesnt send you to hell which he himself created. That is biggest irrational extra ordinary claim one can make
@@hatebreeder999 That is irevalent to this topic. No one here is claiming "God" killed the multiverse!
Yes...
the more i listen to these discussions from different episodes i realise how small and insignifiant i am.
How do strings (theory) interact with inflation for multiverse?
What if time is just perception? And all is meeting all (potential) in itself, thus giving rise to the next level of actual infinity?
I think all is far simpler than we make it out to be 😊
Who got to decide? Each of us, of course 😊
The first question is how does it work, no?
My question is how can we think that the zero point isn't literally everywhere and infinitely dense?... Making the observable cosmos a dream in which all potential is meeting all potential in and through, not only us, but everything in us.
15:35 is me litteraly walking with anybody. They are ducking from hitting their head, while my 5foot self just walks freely lol
Sheena Alexis87 Looool read this comment before I got to that part. Skipped ahead just to see and wasn’t disappointed
@@yahyeleban10 haha I'm happy!! :)
Although I’m not going to divulge it here in this comment, once ‘information’s’ correct ontological identity is recognised (it’s not ‘digits’) it becomes amply apparent that none of it exists outside of our universe, presumably precisely that location where the creator of it all resides - along with his/hers/their/its means, methods & madnesses for so doing. Including whether not this creator created any other universes.
So we don’t even know how or why this our own home universe exists - with us sitting here petulantly but quite justifiably curious about it - let alone any thing that may or may not be outside it’s boundaries.
Just admit “We don’t know” & get on with making the world here a better place.
Of course multiple universes exist, but not in our same space-time. We now know that a universe is inside a black hole. There's a black hole at the center of most galaxies.
Great show.. So if our universe ran backwards 13.8 billion years it would have theoretically originated from a "Primordial atom".. BUT I'm led to understand these new theories mean we suddenly expanded in an inflationary explosion pinching us off from a PRE-EXISTING. universe, and so on infinitely in time and space.. I must have this wrong, right?
PS. I THINK I like string theories prediction of 10 to the 500th universes BETTER than an Infinity of them, but then you think stopping there seems arbitrary..
@Stefano Portoghesi thanks for your response , That's good advice Stefano. I would like your opinion on something.. if the Cosmos is one vast wave function, and particles are simply perturbations within the field, HOW do vast numbers of multiverses with great complexity arise from a relatively smooth field ?? What could be the mechanism?
@Stefano Portoghesi Maybe the question is impossible for us to answer?
@@billnorris1264 Finite vs infinite, finite leads to absolute determinism. Meta-mathematics, set theory etc. leads to infinities. Read Laws of Form. a good introduction homepages.math.uic.edu/~kauffman/Laws.pdf
What's the name of the music piece in the opening?
Did this universe start with one quantum fluctuation, or more? Does the CMB come from one quantum fluctuation at big bang start, or many quantum fluctuations at big bang start?
23:34 I would say 3 with Unicity, one thing exists
Once you cross the event horizon of a black hole , you fall into a Younger universe...We came from a black hole that created the big bang we can see.
“Why the leap in scientific confidence that multiple universes are actually out there”. What does “out there” even mean in this context? Where is “here”? When is “now”? Before you start using sloppy language to postulate “multiple universes” ( whatever that even means) it would be important, it seems, to define what is meant by space/time, the fundamental reality of which is still very much up for debate in physics and in fact seems to necessarily have to be eliminated for relativity and quantum physics to co-exist.
I have no doubt we are in a multiverse, but I am still a but skeptical about the BBT, especially with the inflation/compression of multiple "bubbles". The uncertainty of science is enervating.
How can other universes (eg inside black holes) have different physical laws and still support entanglement (which recent work suggests)?
Indeed there is something somewhat preposterous about the very same scientists who exclaim ' you can't violate the laws of physics '.....being quite happy to allow trillions of violations as long as they're in some untestable realm. It does rather smack of desperation.
Quantum events seem to behave independently from the laws of physics. That's why Einstein referred to quantum entanglement as "spooky action from a distance." What we're dealing with here isn't at all fully-understood.
@@peterstanbury3833 Desperation? Most physicists are more than transparent about what they don't know. That's a sign of intellectual honesty, not desperation.
@@ominous-omnipresent-they Yes, desperation. Having to conjure up 10^500 universes with other laws....to explain away fine tuning. Never mind that doing so violates the very 'laws of physics' by which those other universes are derived !
@@peterstanbury3833 Okay, so, just because they don't use "God" to fill in the gaps, they're somehow desperate? Again, quantum events seem to behave independently from the laws of physics that dictate the macro world we're accustomed to. I don't recall a single physicist in this video proclaiming to have all the answers. They even made it quite clear that the Multiverse was a hypothesis; something you would have been aware of if you weren't so focused on reinforcing your own beliefs. No one has to explain away fine-tuning. Go ahead and leave this tiny little speck we call Earth and see how much the Universe truly embraces you.
How would mathematics, strings and inflation interact for multiverse?
Do quantum fields and fluctuations extend infinitely, or start and stop after being caused?
I decided quite a while ago that either there must be a deity that designed our perfectly tuned universe, or there are countless universes each with different laws of physics and of course we find ourselves in a Goldilocks universe hospitable for life.
The real way to think about it , is that to prove to yourself that multiple Universe is not exiting and then you would have all the logic for it .😉😇🥰
Realiy, my friend do you know what it is infinity ? What it is properties ? Do you know that the thing that have no bounderies and no begning how it will react ? And can it move or be composite of other things ? In infinity there is no motion ,no change, no supdivide all these are not available in the universe , you just dosnot use your miend .
It’s because of Human Beings and Human Influence ,that’s what our quantum body energy is capable 🙏🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻
They must.
Could inflation stop after using up a certain amount of energy? How does inflation keep building energy for expansion? Maybe all the energy of an inflation gets used up; and another inflation has to start at later, and previous times?
Fine tuning ? It's just taking a way ...
Asking if multiple universes exist is like asking if multiple planets, stars, galaxies, people, and things must exist. To think that only one thing of anything exists makes no logical sense!
Not able to come to multiple universes yet. If multiple universes, likely stacked on top each other in parallel, what implications are not know.
Is Max Tegamrk’s level 3 Everettianism? Then is level 4 a kind of idealism?
I don't think multiverse is the way to go.
Even if there were multiple universes, one would still need to explain the origin of the Laws governing those universes too. Un-directed random material natural processes have never been observed or experimentally demonstrated to be capable of producing any form of laws. As scientifically confirmed, non-material laws are the product of only Mind / Consciousness / Intelligence.
Correct.
Outside universe(s) is inflation, which travels faster than universe, or something in addition to inflation?
They have no alternative but to exist
It is childishly simple. All the different forms of matter, for example solid liquid and gas vibrate within a certain frequency range. Coexistent with that, around Earth for example there are six other 'octaves' of matter, referred to as planes or realms. There is ONE universe but it exists on different 'octaves' of vibration. When a person here supposedly 'dies' they simply exit the basic physical body and the mental focus becomes centred in a different frequency range that we call the Astral Realm. All planets and moons exist also in these different frequency ranges, and life is spread over these. The more advanced a life form is the easier it is for them to consciously move 'onto' a different plane. This Solar System, and in fact the whole Galaxy is teeming with life 'Dark matter' is nothing more than matter in a different 'octave', beyond the ability of our eyes to see it but being just as physical, in fact technically it is more physical as the higher vibratory matter has atoms that are closer together and vibrate faster according to the law of conservation of momentum. We know from the genuine contacts that have taken place with non-Terrestrials that Venus (for example) has a very unpleasant environment for us with higher pressure, high temperatures and acidic atmosphere, but ONLY on the basic plane. Go to the higher planes and it is unbelievably beautiful. Within the envelope of Jupiter's gas clouds is a smaller 'solid' planet with a great many inhabitants. Before some 'scientist' says this is nonsense remember that 'They' with current technology are totally incapable of detecting the billions of humans on the higher planes of Earth, where your 'dead' relatives and friends are still very much alive.
The universe is a combination of all of them.
You can all think about multi-multi-universes and what they would be like or in fact even if they exist but right now I just want to know if I can finally book a seat in a Chinese eat-all-u-can buffet this coming Sunday in my favorite restaurant (here in Australia) seeing that the Covid restrictions are being toned down.
"Can exist in principle" is very different from "actually exist". It like winning lottery ticket: If you buy one you can "win in principle", but would you actually?
To be a famous Physicist today you need to think of a crazy idea, then convince everybody it is real.
Maybe there are vast regions of multiverse without inflation, like vast regions of universe without galaxies in cosmic web?
Thank you for another mind-expanding video in your series; this one on "Must Multiple Universes Exist?".
This series, in my opinion, is at its best when focusing on existential and primordial questions such as cosmic origins and destinies, the world's meaning and purpose, Consciousness, God and Atheism, the Multiverse, Quantum theory, and related such topics.
(Of less interest to me are remote and off-beat topics such as body resurrection and mind-healing.)
I rank the hypothesis and prediction of a Multiverse as one of the most stunning and far-reaching speculative theories of all time.
It would be on the order of Copernican Heliocentrism, Einstein's Relativity Theory and the advent of Quantum Mechanics. If confirmed, the Multiverse makes an epic paradigm-shift in humanity's conception of the cosmic landscape, ourselves and our place in it.
That the cosmos could even consist of anything close to Tegmark's four levels of Multiverse pushes the farthest frontiers of mind and scientific imagination. A Super-Multiverse?
Amazing, as your video points out, how the Multiverse went from science fiction just a short years ago to wide-acceptance today as a plausible scientific extension of existing theories (Eternal-chaotic inflation, Super-string theory, and Fine-tuning and the Cosmological Constant puzzle).
I look forward in the coming years to more refinements of Multiverse theory and greater collection of cosmological data to help falsify or confirm aspects of it.
Thank you again for another provocative video.
I'm completely with you.
Though I consider the existence of the multiverse to be the most plausible, it is just a hypothesis, after all. Also, I'm confused as to which god this video is referring to.
Just a speculative philosophical argument: There is no single tree, there is no single cloud, there is no single planet, there is no single star, there is no single galaxy, there is no single universe.
Every natural object we see appears as many ‘instances’ of the same thing. These ‘instances’ can be viewed as branches of fractal in the space-time. We have not seen any ‘single thing’ so far, so one can assume that our universe is one from many other ones.
"Infinite clone universes" Since the universe is constantly changing and in motion, Each moment could be looked at as a different universe. Very similar, but always slightly different no matter what. In that sense multiple universes do exist and the separation is what we experience as time.
Great, it’s a very beautiful and deep argument! As time is a dimension, snapshots of the universe are kind of parallel universes separated by distance along the dimension of time.
I think the biggest question asked on this channel is why something other than nothing.
Where did the vacuum come from ? Or the energy or anything NOOOOOOO!
must other plants exist, must other planets exist, must other universes exist...
yeah you probably need some variety to get consciousness.
unlikely to get it on your first attempt.
scary thing about existence is that when we die existence is then not necessary/becomes redundant. you can no longer ask questions.
How much particles are in the vacuum dark energy?
Can a universe exist where the storyline of the show supernatural with dean and sam and angel castiel be reality.... With all the monsters and werewolves and vampires and chuck and darkness and different story of cain and able as shown in the show..... And can we reincarnate in that reality..... Please someone answer me and provide some of their mindful insights.... I have been asking this question on many channels but not one person is answering.
Only logically possible universes can exist in reality. A lot of people get that mixed up with 'imaginable universe'. There is no reason to think the story line of Supernatural is logically possible.
We recently discovered the gravity spectrum. .. How many more spectrums are there?
There is repeatable science that has been done, that is evidence of a consciousness spectrum.
I am surprised that nobody has ever called out on the theoretical physicists that their science are not based on empirical evidence. They seems to be the only bunch of people free from scrutiny of their fantastical claims.
1) are there any empirical evidence of the multuverse and multi-dimensions beyond the the three?
2) why should the smallest and most basic particle be like string? Can't it be like dot instead? And has anyone seen those strings?
They are often heavily scrutinized within the community of sciences, and philosophy These theories are logical conclusions of the empirical evidence we do have. They're not paraded around as facts, they're just a concept from evidence we have. Along with meeting all the logic checks we've established through philosophy and epistemology. They are simply ideas that try to make reasonable sense of the evidence.
They are not theists; they have sound reason for their ideas.
What happens is this: when we have a proven mainstream theory that works with.extreme precision, makes correct predictions and creates a huge variety of technology, and the mathematics of that theory makes predictions about objects that we can't really prove its existence in the moment, still we have good reasons to believe the mathematics is right. This is because the equations are just a description of the behaviour of nature, is not exactly an invention.
For instance, the mathematics of Einstein theories predicted the existence of black holes, even when nobody never had a reason to think such object could exist, because we can not see it in the sky. The orbitals of electrons were discovered first in the math and then via experiments. The boson of Higgs was "discovered" in the equations 40 years before we could build a machine to really find it.
@@domcasmurro2417 yeah, then just let us wait for them to build a machine to travel into the blackhole and through the wormhole before they claim that the other end of the blackhole is a white hole.
Theories are theories, they are not emperical truth. And why of all things " strings " ? Maybe the basal of the physical reality is made of of beads instead of strings? How do they know it is shaped like string since the microscope can't hell our eyes to see subatomic particles?
They are just claiming. And since they are the experts, we have to simply take their imagination as the gospel truth I guess. It's bloody nonsense!
I dont subscribe to string theory but, all the technology you used to post your comment, is bases on an incomplete theory with mysteries much more deep than white holes or multiverses. For instances, the electrons and photons that make technology works, are waves. But what is waving? Nobody knows. What is the medium those waves are propagating? Nobody knows. It doesnt mean the theory is wrong or that your computer is not gonna work. Scientists are not trying to fool you. Politicians and religious people are tryng to fool you.
Truth just like when people pass over you can't see them but they still exists in another universe are dimension and there many levels I just like radio frequencies
Could multiple universes have developed from different small hot dense states, perhaps from other gravity singularities that were inflated?
What does He think now in 2014, we are officially in an age of Retrocausality, where the future blends into the past and vice versa
Even if we discovered an infinite multiverse, that would still only be a slice of objective reality. Other realities may not even be arranged as an expanse of stars.
Our ego (as a species) is so big now, that the whole conceptual universe isn't enough anymore...
Could it be that the whole universe really is larger, more detailed, more subtle, and more complex that we imagined? If so, I think this is a good thing. It is kind of like you just realized that your home is much larger than you had just thought a few minutes ago and there are a lot of exciting and promising things that are happening that you just discovered.
e pluribus unum: from many, one. The definition people use for the multiverse are just a single universe expanding at a speed which would make traveling across it impossible.This is fundamentally one universe

Multiverse is Alive: NOW!
Each person or organism had one consciousness unit. Each persons consciousness unit is one world/universe 🌎 and all Person’s worlds are all universes: which is multiverse we are currently living !!!!!
lol no don't let you're self get bamboozle trust me i used to follow those teachings for many years it's not true
If everything than can happen happens, then the only question to ponder is why does everything than can happen happen?
The music makes it hard to watch this video. (Also 2nd someone else's comment that it's too bad Everett isn't mentioned. His is a truly sad story, the way he was run out of academia, ridiculed and punished for not knowing his place among his "betters." He barely began to receive the recognition he deserved before passing away. Even that was fringe recognition. It's sad that today the multiverse theory is cool, far-out topic and he goes largely unmentioned.).
You left self out of lvl 3 but vl 3 is my choce
