Looks like it’s time to build that space wall to prevent the multi-verse aliens from infiltrating our society. If you thought Voter ID was contentious before, wait until you meet THESE creatures.

“Is Another Universe Sitting Too Close To Us On The Multiverse Bus?”

Is this the Dark Matter Universe? I smell racism.

It’s just another indication that the “standard model” of cosmology has run its course and continues on only through institutional inertia.

Bull$hit. There is no way to perform experiments on an “alternate “ universe.

There is one universe, and that is the meaning of universe.

The Standard Model has had known weaknesses for quite some time, but it’s still the best thing we have for now. Newton’s First Law - I see what you did there. ;)

"What does “too close” mean?"

Great question.

If there are multiple universes, then they would only exist as separate universe if they were separated from each other. Each universe would contain space, time, matter, and energy.

The void between the universes, in order not to be a universe itself, would have to be devoid of space, time, matter and energy.

This would suggest that there is no void, just a bunch of universes banging up against each other with infinitesimally small yet unimaginably strong walls separating them. Or it would mean that the universes are completely orthogonal to one another in completely different dimensions such that there is no imaginable way to move from one to the other.

The idea that multiverses are "too far" or "too close" to one another seems like a non sequitur.

What if each Universe contained something else in addition to “space, time, matter and energy”?

By something else, I mean something we have not “seen” yet, at least through the perceptions of physicists.

Multiverse?
Better that than the Macroverse.
They all float down there, ya know.

When they rake their leaves, they all blow over onto our side.

"Multiverse Theory...was first proposed by philosopher and psychologist William James"

I wonder if Philosophy or Psychology require studying Physics 101, or higher?
