I am probably a billionaire with with the biggest house in the world however I would be on another universe. Scientist have proven that there are infinite number of universes out in space and we aren't alone. In the article written by Chet Raymo, he states that parallel universes really do exist. Nonetheless, if parallel universes exist then that means everyone on earth has a duplicate of themselves on another universe but because there are infinite universes then everyone has an infinite number of duplicates, except not all universes are exactly like ours. However, we can observe over 40 billion light years away but other universes are in regions so far away their light hasn’t reached us yet and because most universes are infinite in extent a lot of them are unobservable. We won’t be able to visit any new universes because of the distance. However, one theory states that the action you are doing in one universe you are doing that same action somewhat similar in another.
Understanding the different universes is such a significant impact on our society because we know that there is more to everything than just the human race. By knowing that there is more in the universe we can expand our exploration and make new discoveries. One main reason this article is important is because in billions of years we are going to need a new habitable planet to settle on and we know that there are other universes similar to our so I don’t think I would be much of a challenge to find a new home. But just thinking about the fact that we aren't alone in this life and there are more of us far from here just seems very fascinating.
However, the author of this article provided great evidence to support his theory. The author always explained his thoughts and ideas very well. The author was really helpful and I think he didn’t use too complex of word so that almost no one could understand him. Except, after reading this article I had on major question for the author. How do we know that there infinite number of universes except they are unobservable.
I found this article to be very interesting. THe idea that we could be different people in different universes is so mind blowing. Its very hard to imagine ourselves differently, but in a different universe one may lead a very life. I also found interesting that we are able to observe galaxies forty billion years away. It shows how big the universe is, and it shows how far our teach has come recently within the past few hundred years. I also found the idea of colonizing another universe to be interesting. To go outside of our own universe would be so cool and interesting.
ReplyDeleteI liked Matthew's opening. The idea that I could be worth at least a billion dollars in another universe is mind blowing, and it really was a good explanation that set the tone for the rest of the review. I also thought that Matt's use of the pictures was well done, has it helps to visualize the ways that inter-universe travel could work.
This review raises one important question; WIll we be able to colonize other universes before the Earth is made uninhabitable? Is inter-universe colonization as easy as Mat claims it is, or even possible? These questions will not be answered in my lifetime, but nonetheless important questions and these questions may hold the keys to the survival of the human race later on.
You did a good job articulating the mind-boggling concepts about parallel universes in your first paragraph. I liked your view regarding the significance of knowing beyond our own human race. You analyzed the strengths and weaknesses of the article well and posed a question in your final paragraph, which I also found to be well done. It's weird but cool at the same time to fathom the possibility of parallel universes, and even more so when acknowledging that there could be another you out there. I think checking over some grammatical errors would be helpful for your next current event. Overall, this was a super interesting topic to read about.
