the multiverse

The multiverse is a concept suggesting that our universe is just one of many, potentially infinite, universes that exist simultaneously. Each universe within the multiverse may have different physical laws, constants, and conditions. Think of it like a vast, cosmic ensemble, where each universe is a bubble in a larger space. While this idea is rooted in various theories of physics and cosmology, it remains speculative because these other universes are beyond our direct observation. Nonetheless, the multiverse concept helps explain certain mysteries about our universe's fine-tuned properties and the nature of reality itself.
