EXCERPTS:
"It's just a mind-boggling idea
that there may be, essentially
exact replicas of us out there in the vastness of space.
UNIVERSE - FLAT OR CURVED.
To find out that universe is flat or curve
they shot laser beams deep into space
and made a giant light triangle
Now we can tell,
and the measurement is in
and the anser is,
it works beautifully.
THE ANGLES ADD UP TO EXACTLY 180 DEGREES!
The universe is flat.
The WMAP seems to show that the universe is flat.
STRING THEORY, 1980s
"The idea is that all particles are not solid points or dots
as science said they were.
Instead, if you could see up close
particles are, in fact, tiny string-like objects
that individually vibrate in various ways.
We found that it wasn't just strings
that were involved in the physics
but also membranes
and other extended objects
which could vibrate.
And that's rather like enlarging the band
to have drums and other instruments
which enrich the sound and really broaden the
repertoire of things that could be played.
String theory is now evolved to what is called
"M" or Membrane Theory.
Two (or More) Places at One Time:
Heisneberg Uncertainty Principle
As crazy as it sounds,
not only does quantum physics
tell you that a little particle
can be in two places at once
but the so-called
Heisneberg Uncertainty Principle
tells you that sometime the particle
even must be in two places at once.
When laser is beamed at glass apple
its beam (photon) reflects at more than one place.
The universe, at one point,
was actually smaller than an electron.
If that's true and if electrons are described
by being many places at the same time in parallel states
this means that the universe also exists in parallel state.
[Farmilab is trying to find a 'graviton'
to know whether extra-dimensions really exists or not.]
If extra dimensions are there,
it means the universe
is a much bigger and much stranger place
than we have ever imagined.
Einstein introduced the wormhole into his equations
But we physicists have calculated that if you concentrate
enormous energy at a single point
to attain something called the Planck energy
the ultimate energy
space and time itself become unstable.
Little bubbles begin to form
little bubbles that are perhaps portals
gateways to another universe. Michio Kaku
In this way, a microscopic pod or nanobot
containing humanity's DNA
and the cosmic code of our world
can be transported to a parallel universe.
Faced with extinction
this could be humanity's last great hope.
But if this incredible feat is achieved
our entire universe would be resurrected
and like a phoenix
rise from the ashes.
