So parallel universes really do exist?

Post Reply New Topic

I came by this article about a study saying parallel universes really do exist. Wow, now that is cool.
So they maybe there is a place for us after all, us who all feel we are living on the Wrong Planet... Now how do we get there? Ah ah

It would be really cool if it was to be proven!

just click your heels three times, and repeat after me- "there's no place like home..."

Yet another iteration of a decades-old speculation - one that can neither be tested nor proven.

Isn't it enough to see that the universe is beautiful without having to believe that there are other universes on the outside of it too?

I wish we could actually travel to the "parallel universe"--that would prove it beyond a shadow of a doubt.

It's truly a pity that we haven't gone beyond the moon!

I understand the budgetary constraints, etc.

But I was promised, as a kid, that we'd be on Mars by 1985--obviously, we're still not even close in 2014!

It isn't a matter of budgeting; it's a matter of reality.

You can not travel to a location that does not exist (i.e., Atlantis, Earth 663, Mordor, Vulcan, et cetera). You can only speculate about its existence.

We could travel to the region of the Crab Nebula, say---if we had the technology.

I wonder how THAT would uproot the Laws of Physics!

Mars--now that's a "heavenly body" which we know exists. We must make progress towards getting to Mars!

You have it backwards.

Fist, you uproot the Laws of Physics; then you travel to the Crab Nebula.

That is, if you really want to travel 6,500 light-years, just be incinerated by the X-ray and Gamma-ray flux from the neutron pulsar PSR B0531+21.

I agree with you on that:

We'll have to adjust when we get to that point.

However, once we get to the region of the Crab Nebula, perhaps the Earthian Laws of Physics would note apply there.

The laws of physics have been observed to be the same at the Crab Nebula as they are here.

That's quite possible.

But until we're actually, in a manned spaceship, in the region of the Crab Nebula, and we could actually perform research THERE, I remain (slightly) skeptical about the application of the Laws of Physics to that specific area.

Local conditions, unknown to us here on Earth, might affect anything and everything there.

Around the time of the Apollo missions, it was stated that we would be on Mars by 1985.

I used to want to be in that Lunar Module so bad--though I'm claustrophobic.

LOL...I didn't care....I just wanted to go up to space!

I didn't even think about how bad the food would be! I thought I could live on Tang (the orange drink which was promoted by the astronauts).
