Welcome to Our Multiverse Theory Page

Explore the fascinating concept of the multiverse theory with us. In this mind-bending theory, multiple universes exist parallel to our own, each with its own set of physical laws and properties.

The multiverse is the hypothetical set of all possible universes. Together, these universes are presumed to comprise everything that exists: the entirety of space, time, matter, energy, information, and the physical laws and constants that describe them. The different universes within the multiverse are called "parallel universes",  "alternate universes", "multiple universes", "plane universes", "parent and child universes", etc. 

Hawking's Brane Theory

Scientists speculate that these universes may interact with each other in ways we cannot yet comprehend, leading to a myriad of possibilities and outcomes. The final theory of the origin of the universe from the late Professor Stephen Hawking, developed in collaboration with Professor Thomas Hertog from KU Leuven, argues against the traditional account of eternal inflation, proposing a simpler and finite universe.

Hawking challenges the conventional Big Bang theory by suggesting the universe is finite and simpler than previously thought. Based on string theory and holography, their work argues against the idea of an eternally inflating, fractal universe, proposing instead that the universe has a more uniform, finite structure. The brane multiverse version postulates that our entire universe exists on a membrane (brane) which floats in a higher dimension or "bulk". In this bulk, there are other membranes with their own universes.  A theory in which the four space–time dimensions of the universe that are apparent make up a surface, called the brane, in a higher-dimensional space–time, called the bulk or perhaps a Mother Universe.

Is our universe a brane?

Two infinite branes--one that becomes our universe and a "mirror universe"--live a tiny fraction of a meter apart. When the branes collide, the resulting energy creates all the matter and energy in our universe. The membranes then bounce apart. The newborn universe, on its brane, evolves using this new energy. (This could the dark energy that we are now aware of?) The inventor of the inflationary-universe model, physicist Alan Guth of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, says that the new theory is attractive, but he doesn't feel that the kinks are quite worked out yet--particularly what happens when the branes collide and separate. The Brane Theory is a very speculative theory based on imaginative minds with no underlying proofs or indications but it does make good fodder for Sci-fi stories and films.
