Scientists
believe they may have caught a glimpse of a parallel universe bumping up
against ours.
They've seen
hints in signals from the most distant points of the universe that suggest the
fabric of our universe has been disrupted by another incredibly different
universe. Their analysis may be the proof for the multiverse theory.
According to
researchers: "Dr Ranga-Ram Chary examined the noise and residual signals
in the cosmic microwave background left over from the Big Bang (pictured) and
found a number of scattered bright spots which he believes may be signals of
another universe bumping into our own billions of years ago."
At least
that's the tentative conclusion researchers have come to. According to some
cosmological theories, collisions of alternative universes should be possible.
Theories conclude that our universe is like a bubble among many.
Once a
universe begins in a big bang type setting, it never stops expanding. That goes
for all the universes. So it makes sense they'd periodically bump into one
another.
They're all
likely in a row, say researchers, vibrating, bouncing around, and rubbing up on
each other.
Dr. Chary
believes that the signal he's received indicate that this other universe is
extremely different from our own.
He says it could
have a ratio of subatomic particles called photos and baryons that are about 10
fold greater than in our universe.
Dr. Chary
explains, “The fine tuning of parameters in the early universe required to
reproduce our present day universe suggests that our universe may simply be a
region within an eternally inflating super-region.
Many other
regions beyond our observable universe would exist with each such region
governed by a different set of physical parameters than the ones we have
measured for our universe."
More
research will need to be done, but this could be the beginning of some very
interesting discoveries.
