Or maybe it's all one universe and the big bang was just a localized event within it, but since we can't see that far away it seems like everything. (Not a physicist, this idea may seem silly to the more well-versed in this topic.)
- sixQuarks 12y agoThe book "The Mathematical Universe" is an interesting read. The author theorizes that there are 4 types of infinite universes. The one we're in contains an infinite number of "universes" that are so far away from each other, that light hasn't had the chance to reach others. These universes all abide by the same physics. the other "universes" are in a kind of different dimension, where each one has different laws of physics. This theory is basically the end-all of just how insignificant we are, starting from the theory that earth was the center of the universe. Not only are we not the center of the universe, but our universe itself is an insignificant part of the whole.
