Assuming that the multiverse hypothesis is true and a singularity at the center of a black hole can give rise to another baby universe. Can we detect such an event in the LIGO observatory?

There are a couple of completely unrelated ideas that would all lead to the existence of things you could call separate universes. There is no "multiverse hypothesis".Kaustubh Namjoshi said:Assuming that the multiverse hypothesis is true
Gravitational waves are ripples in the fabric of spacetime, caused by the acceleration of massive objects. They were first predicted by Albert Einstein's theory of general relativity.
Gravitational waves are detected using highly sensitive instruments called interferometers, which measure tiny changes in the distance between two objects caused by passing gravitational waves.
Detecting gravitational waves confirms the existence of these ripples in spacetime and provides evidence for the predictions of general relativity. It also opens up new possibilities for studying the universe and its origins.
The multiverse theory suggests that there may be multiple universes, each with its own set of physical laws and conditions. The existence of a multiverse is still a highly debated topic among scientists.
Gravitational waves could potentially provide evidence for the existence of a multiverse, as they could be caused by collisions between different universes. However, more research and evidence is needed to support this connection.
