Multiple Universes Coming into Contact

In summary, the conversation discusses the hypothetical scenario of two simultaneous Big Bangs producing independent Universes. These Universes would have different initial conditions, physical constants, and possibly even physical laws. The question is raised about what would happen if these Universes grew large enough to touch each other. However, this scenario is not supported by any valid references and is therefore deemed invalid.

TL;DR Summary
Two (or more) Big Bangs produce multiple Universes: What happens if they touch?
Imagine there were two simultaneous Big Bangs, each producing an independent Universe, and well separated from each other at their formation. Presumably because each would have its own unique set of initial conditions and would follow its own development timeline, they would each have different sets of physical constants, and perhaps even different physical laws.

What would happen at the conjunction if they grew sufficiently large for them to touch?

You can't just "imagine" this. You need to find an actual model in a valid reference (textbook or peer-reviewed paper) that has this property. (Hint: You won't because there isn't one.)

The OP is not based on a valid premise. Thread closed.
 

1. What is the concept of multiple universes coming into contact?

Multiple universes coming into contact refers to the idea that there are parallel universes that exist alongside our own, and that these universes can interact with each other in some way.

2. How is the concept of multiple universes coming into contact supported by science?

The concept of multiple universes coming into contact is supported by theories such as the multiverse theory in physics and the many-worlds interpretation in quantum mechanics. These theories propose the existence of multiple parallel universes based on mathematical and scientific evidence.

3. What are some possible ways in which multiple universes could come into contact?

There are several theories on how multiple universes could come into contact, including the idea of a cosmic collision or a wormhole connecting different universes. Another possibility is that parallel universes could interact through quantum entanglement.

4. Is there any evidence for multiple universes coming into contact?

Currently, there is no concrete evidence for multiple universes coming into contact. However, some scientists argue that certain phenomena, such as the unexplained patterns in the cosmic microwave background, could be signs of interactions between parallel universes.

5. What are the implications of multiple universes coming into contact?

If multiple universes do come into contact, it could have significant implications for our understanding of the universe and our place in it. It could also potentially lead to new technologies and advancements in science. However, more research and evidence is needed before any definitive conclusions can be drawn.
