The Science of Parallel Universes

The Science Of Parallel Universes

What if countless versions of you exist in different universes, living lives you can only imagine?

Quantum physics suggests multiple outcomes of reality may exist at the same time, giving rise to the idea of many universes.

Tiny patterns in leftover radiation from the Big Bang may hint at hidden universes brushing against our own.

String theory proposes multiple dimensions beyond the three we know—potentially opening the door to infinite parallel worlds.

Movies show characters hopping universes, but in real science, the multiverse remains a bold yet unproven concept.

Detecting other universes is nearly impossible since they lie beyond our observable cosmos, making evidence extremely difficult to gather.

Some scientists believe black holes may connect to other universes through mysterious wormholes—but it’s still a theory.

The multiverse remains one of science’s biggest questions. Could reality be just one small piece of something far greater?
