Hi, you. You who are reading this blog. You’re probably holding a gadget in your hand. If not, perhaps you’re living in the year 2035, with the internet neuralinked to your brain—Good job, Elon Musk! But that doesn’t matter.
What if you were told that right now, at this very instance, there is another version of you that could possibly be paragliding in Hawaii or is probably signing a million-dollar contract as chairman of a pharmaceutical company? Or maybe, in another reality, you are, well, a rock. Yes. Just a rock.
And to add to your fascination…
What if you were told that all of these realities are happening everywhere all at once?
Intrigued?
We’re just getting started.
Across the Multiverse
The theory of the multiverse is fascinating. And this fascination has compelled scientists to dedicate their lives to finding out whether it is true.
One of these brilliant minds is the well-known Neil deGrasse Tyson. He explains a much-simplified version of the multiverse theory.
Imagine you are in a ship sailing at sea, moving toward the horizon, where lies a whole universe. Subsequently, there is another ship that has its own horizon, and both ships don’t even see each other.
The only way you can see each other is when both horizons can somehow overlap, which is something we haven’t scientifically been able to figure out. The only way we can access this parallel universe is to create a tunnel, which can be very dangerous.
If the universe you want access to operates on different physics, then you could possibly implode.
Now, the question is, do we have any proof of these concepts?
Proof
The WMAP (Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe), an uncrewed spacecraft that examined space from 2001 to 2010, reported inconsistent temperatures across certain areas in the cosmic microwave background. The data suggested that our universe had collided with another parallel universe in the distant path.
The multiverse theory isn’t something that was discovered overnight. It stemmed out of mathematical proofs when quantum physics (the study of the small) was married to the theory of relativity (the study of the large). There are variations in universes simply because the conditions that would spawn the laws of physics themselves have variations.
This only makes you wonder how little we can see.
Multiple Dimensions
Look around you. The mundaneness of this world can be quite the eye-sore. Sure, the blues of the sky and the ocean, the lush valleys and hills make it all worthwhile. But what if you were told that there is more than what meets the eye?
What if you were told that there exist worlds within ours, yet to be seen, yet to be explored? You see, humans like to believe in that which is seen. But what if they are bound by perception?
Wessam Eldein’s book, The Quiz, brilliantly executes the concept of multiple dimensions. It proposes the question, what would happen if we were to see into multiple dimensions?
Delve into the mind-bending story of John Carter as his life condenses into a series of question marks leaving a puzzle to be solved.
The Quiz is now available on Amazon.
