Its better to pitch an idea wich People love to hear becuse it get views it sells books.. objective aduacte facts is just to damn booring for the general.. that action scifi movie is a Great turn on though. Thars what asked so thats whats given.. No way they talks like that to other professionals and their reputations Is on the lite? I dont buy it anyways. And I dont blame someone who press that money making Button when is basicly just lies there waiting to be pushed.. I know I would If it meant a huge different in my life.. everyone likes that money..maybe im wrong .I get that feel anyways.. usually when im speculate im wrong so..

    There's a reason particle physicists and really physicists in general, dislike string theorists and inflation theorists. Steven Weinberg in his later years called string theory a non-quantum theory. And Roger Penrose calls string theory "fashion" and inflation "fantasy and faith", and he's done so to Carrol's, Greene's and Suskind's faces. Many renowned physicists who once enbraced strings and inflation have walked away from that and call it nonsense. Physicists like Neil Turok, Paul Steindhardt, Matthias Albrecht, and Sabine Hossenfelder, who are in at least as impressive standing as Carroll, Greene, Guth, Linde, Starikovsky and Susskind, disagree. And as for Witten, we need a match with Eric Weinstein, in what would be the match of the early 21st century.

    There's a big difference between how he talks about the multiverse when speaking about his personal opinion on the subject and when he's presenting an educational video about the subject as a whole. He might be convinced the multiverse exists but he knows the evidence to prove it isn't anywhere close yet. Therefore, when teaching he will give the educators answer, not what he personally thinks. In other words, he does what most scientists do, seperate his own opinions from what he can prove.

    Can you not understand that multiple universes is a contradiction in terms- rather like the idea of more than one unique thing? Universe m-e-a-n-s *only-one*. Either that or it means nothing. If you have in mind something that is not only-one, then pick another word- a fresh fantasy. If there are more than one unique thing then(neither* of them is unique. Just chuck away universe or multiverse and speak only of verses. Go for that and it will become clear to you that verse(uni, or multi) holds no significance for you whatsoever. You have no idea what a 'verse' is; for you it is no more than a word that evokes no associations whatsoever. multiverse= lots of somethings but lots of exactly what?-you have not the slightest idea. Just recognise that fact. instead of multiverse go for wordyword, it comes to e-x-a-c-t-l-y- the same thing. Sure there are any number of wordywords; so what? You have no direct immediate personal experience of any of them; you simply keep repeating a mantra: wordyword, wordyword, wordyword. You can keep doing that until you are blue in the face and still understand absolutely nothing.

    While it's fun to think we could be superheros or false Gods with powers the inhabitants didn't have, it's most likely that we would also be under the control of that universe's rules, with fun, shocking or even fatal consequences. For example, if a being from a universe without gravity found itself here they couldn't simply ignore gravity and fly, it's more likely a body not used to having a crushing weight pulling it down would be in a spot of difficulty.

    The multiverse is another way of describing the multi-nature of time and position. Heisenberg uncertainty principle makes sense because, Quantum mechanics is about multiple positions, multiple momentum, and multiple times future, present, and past. A photon does interact with itself in the double slit experiment, because it is interacting with it's self in different times. We know that time is not constant, and that an object has an average kinetic energy. Time slows down with increase in energy. This means some of the objects time is different within different areas of the object. It is spread out in position and time. It exists in a multiverse.

    What “triggers” a multiverse to exist? I believe only time travel can trigger multiverses. Something would have to have changed in the past (or future even?) to “trigger” or initiate an additional parallel universe(s). Because how can there just simply BE multiverses? What would “cause” there to be multiple “me’s” or “you’s”? So unless someone from the future has the ability to time travel, I don’t believe there are currently multiverses. Unless we can prove time travel 🤷‍♀️ And I believe the past doesn’t exist. Once we live into the next “now” (next moment), the previous now is gone. It’s done. No longer exists. Therefore, nothing to time travel back to. Therefore, no multiverses.

Basically, there are reasonable objections to the multi-verse idea but things like entropy, probability and conservation of momentum and energy are all compatible with it - as you would expect if someone like Sean Carroll is advocating it. Having read his book, I went from being a skeptic to being able to understand that it's a reasonable and valid idea and is not a waste of my time like string theory.

    M theory is not solvable using perturbation theory, and not well defined. Without knowing the geometry of the extra dimensions (of which there could be 10 to the 500 possible values) I just don't see how you can rectify this to be a viable theory. I don't like the first premise of we have no choice but to accept something outside of the universe may exist. Theists use the same argument for their deity. I know its not nearly the same comparison we have many mathematical proofs that support the hypothesis I just like getting away from any argument religulost people have. This is a really great video though attacking the problems head on in an honest direct way. Inflation theory is right its the best support for sure. Keep the vids coming!

    Just stopped by for my daily mind blowing. I can wrap my mind around the multiverse, but what I CAN'T accept is the notion that there is infinite copies of me out there (one is more than enough). Even if there are infinite bubble universes out there I also think that there is an infinite amount of combinations of things (atoms, movements, timing, actions etc) that make up what is currently called "me".

This implies that all possible outcomes of quantum measurements are physically realized in some "world" or universe." Can you explain the difference between multiverse and many-worlds?

    A brilliant way of saying "I don"t really know what's happening out there". Scientists speak as though they are the final word on what's what, the end all of things that exist. I love, admire and respect science, truthful, honest, humble science. They would tell you that a spoon coming into existence without an intelligent, purposeful maker is a scientific impossibility, an absolute absurdity. Yet in the same breath they want you to believe that our vast and mind bogglingly complex universe came into existence all by itself and without an all powerful and supremely intelligent Creator. "Billy go clean your room". "Don't worry Mom. My room will clean itself" The universe exhibits stupendous order. Where there is order there is evidence of intelligence. Where there is intelligence there is a brilliant mind. Where there is a mind there is a person. Where there is all of the above there is purpose. The Bible is clear. Our all powerful and supremely intelligent Creator whose name is Jehovah purposely produced this universe, everything we can and cannot see and put life on this Earth because his dominant personality trait is love.

    I wish just once, one of these videos that talk about multiple universes would do one simple thing: Define specifically what the word "universe" means, just so I would know what they are talking about. The word "universe" has historically always meant, "Everything that exists". Well you can't have two or more sets of "everything that exists". The word "universe" never meant "everything we can see", as Carroll seems to imply in his introduction. It meant everything that exists, whether we can see it or not. The universe doesn't magically get bigger every time we develop a more powerful telescope. We just see more of the one that there is. So, can any viewer here explain this simply to me, a simple but precise definition of just what the word "universe" means in the context of "multiple universes"... a concept which seems meaningless and absurd by the historical definition?

    His "foggy planet' is a decent description of Life inside the corona of a red star. It has been theorized that a clement environment may exist within the Coronas of red stars where planets would be shielded from radio communication with the rest of the universe and the rest of the universe would be optically invisible to the inhabitants of such planets. This idea is further explored and part of the Electric Universe Theory as well as being tangentially connected to something called, 'Saturn Theory'

    Einstein thought the universe was static because that's what the cosmologists he asked told him. He added the cosmological constant to his equation to accommodate that situation. He had to do that, because otherwise his equation could not describe a static universe. As soon as Hubble detected the expansion of the universe, Einstein dropped the cosmological constant like the proverbial hot potato, and called it his biggest blunder.

    Yes, let's stick to observable things. I laughed out-loud. Is that why astrophysicists cling to dark matter and dark energy? Because they're able to observe rapid motion occurring to stars and galaxies but can't explain it? In 1919 Einstein proposed gravitational waves would result from the collision of bodies of great mass like neutron stars or black holes. Ripples would traverse throughout spacetime as a result. If infinite multiverses or parallel universe branched off of our reality it was proposed gravitational waves would be affected traveling through the missing or hidden mass. According to the theory the mass in the parallel or multiple universes would exert an effect upon the gravitational wave causing them to slow down the further they traveled. They proposed if gravitational waves lagged behind the speed of light it would be empirical evidence multiple or parallel universe overlapped our universe. If GWs lagged behind it would be evidence of multiple universe. If GWs travels at the speed of light without slowing down then it indicated there is no such thing as multiple or parallel universe. If gravitational waves traveled slower than light it would be solid evidence this universe was just one out of countless universes. If gravitational waves didn't travel at the speed of light it would explain why the attributes which make up this universe was finely tuned. It would explain why our universe has existed so long without winking out of existence moments after it began. It would debunk God. The multiple universes would each be random occurrences, set forth in motion after the big bang. Slow gravitational waves would be the holy grail for atheists and their evolutionary cosmology. So, what did LIGO measure? Every one of the GWs they measured traveled at the speed of light. Researchers went over radio telescope data and determined at the same time and locations of gravitational waves they found a spike in electromagnetic radiation, gamma rays or X-rays. There was no lag between the gravitational waves and electromagnetic waves. Indicating the gravitational waves were not affected by mass in hidden or parallel universes. Multiple universe appear to be science fiction at this point. It's back to the drawing board I guess.

    An extravagant edifice built on theories which have no evidence in reality. I do not believe the multiverse is science. Furthermore, like the multiverse, the origin of the one universe we live in suffers from the same lack of evidence and a plethora of mutually exclusive ideas which all challenge the conservation of energy and matter. The idea of multiplying universes ad infinitum when we don't know the mechanism that the universe, we live in is particularly problematic. Physicists are fond of suggesting that the total forces of the universe, subtracting the negative from the positive is zero, purporting that the conservation of energy and matter are not violated. This is a red herring. All of the forces of nature should be added together violating the law of conservation.

    I think that our priority should be surviving as a species and eventually we will understand the world around us and this is observable and measurable. The rodents we are descended from could only understand the world around it to a certain degree and as we evolved (survived) we began to understand the world around us. Over hundreds-of-millions of years evolution allowed our brains to develop and this happened without our consent or our conscious effort. I don't think we can find the answers we're looking for, a force greater than us will grow our understanding if only we can survive and this happened, we see it happened when we look into the past. Survival of the human species is the key to understanding the questions we have today. Write the questions down, record them in history, and spend most of your efforts making sure humans can live millions of years.
