The fact that no one knows the answer to this question is what makes it exciting. The story of physics has been one of an ever-expanding understanding of the sheer scale of reality, to the point where physicists are now postulating that there may be far more universes than just our own. Chris Anderson explores the thrilling implications of this idea.

    I'm not interessed in chatting with someone so obviousely projecting. Science is superstition ? Idiot...

    You shouldn't use a computer you know, these are machine of the devil... Boooooh...

    Perhaps you want to check superstition definition again...

    Now if you produce a paper disproving multiverse, have it peer reviewed and earn a Nobel price, maybe I'll listen to the strange noises you make...

    This was the first thing I thought when I started studying astronomy. I must say, this has to be one of the most amazing theories, just thinking about it .... wow amazing.

    but I can't believe it because there is no visible proofs, and they all just theories ?

    In my opinion, we are on the verge of creating our our personal universes through technology, One where everyone can be their own God figure. My reasons behind this are looking at such things as MMORPGS, Vurtual reality and augmented reality technologies and personal/individual power sources. That being said, more universes being created even as simple as where we are and getting bigger and bigger over time.
