The Universe is their more than one???????????

[rickstine]

I've been thinking of this for a long time now and I've not really come up with answers,just more questions.I know that the universe has no shape or ending or center that is theroized in which I accept as fact along with many others,but dose it mean their is more than one?What I mean by this is dose another universe go along side with ours,and could entire conect some day in the next 5 million or onward or is this unvirse made up smaller universes that formed a larger one.

I believe there must be numerous universes, ours "bloomed" out of an ancestoral cosmos, and we are - as I write this - spawning other universes.

It is possible that there can be more than one universe at the center. Theoretically, there have been many theories suggesting that the universe may have "worm holes" which in thought can be used to travel to a new universe.<br /><br /><font color="yellow"> <b> Imagination encourages adventures to happen... </b> </font>/safety_wrapper> <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <font size="2" color="#14ea50"><strong><font size="1">We are born.  We live.  We experiment.  We rot.  We die.  and the whole process starts all over again!  Imagine That!</font><br /><br /><br /><img id="6e5c6b4c-0657-47dd-9476-1fbb47938264" style="width:176px;height:247px" src="http://sitelife.space.com/ver1.0/Content/images/store/14/4/6e5c6b4c-0657-47dd-9476-1fbb47938264.Large.jpg" alt="blog post photo" width="276" height="440" /><br /></strong></font> </div>

There is one universe comprised of an initial set of quantum states and a final set of quantum states. There are infinitely many paths between these two states. At any intermediate point sampled there can be found a different reality with a consistent history and a given entropy by which unused paths are interfered. We live in one of those points described by x, y, z, and w, where w is imaginary time.<br /><br />- or -<br />Some theorize that the brane that contains our universe is but one of many and that these universes bump into each other producing such effects as inflation and expansion.<br /><br />-or-<br />You can take the statistical approach and determine the probabilities of a duplicate earth given the vastness of the universe and the amount of matter that it contains.<br /><br />These scenarios were well described in a SciAm article about a year and a half ago. As I recall, it was on their web site and likely still is. You might go to<br /><br />www.sciam.com and do a search.<br />

They say the universe is in the shape of a pringles potato chip. But there is no center, meaning every point has been inflating away from every other point.

I don't think man will ever find another Universe. I think that's one thing u will have to ask God when u get into Heaven. <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p><span style="font-style:italic" class="Apple-style-span">gavinovz</span></p><p> </p> </div>

IIRC, Farnsworth has postulated (and rather firmly I might ad) there are just 2. <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p><font color="#ff0000"><strong>TPTB went to Dallas and all I got was Plucked !!</strong></font></p><p><font color="#339966"><strong>So many people, so few recipes !!</strong></font></p><p><font color="#0000ff"><strong>Let's clean up this stinkhole !!</strong></font> </p> </div>

 

[rogers_buck]

I think the correct answer is that there are NO universes. From the ultimate nothing you ultimately get nothing. With that, rogers_buck and all of creation disappear in a puff of quantum logic and cigar smoke.

I hope it was the 1970s issue of NG with the topless Tahitian dancer photos. That would give the universe meaning.
