Parallel Universe
Stephen Hawking's last theory
The renowned physicist Stephen Hawking left us with an intriguing theory shortly before he passed away. You see, Hawking thought that there were other parallel universes besides our own. His final paper, which Thomas Hertog and he co-authored, attempted to establish the mathematical framework for a space probe that could find evidence of these other universes, also known as the Multiverse. Imagine that there are multiple universes, not just planets, but entire realities, some of which are empty and others which are teeming with black holes, stars, and possibly life. Originating from The Big Bang Theory, the idea that the universe grew out of a single minuscule To put it another way, Hawking surmised that there were numerous additional big bangs that each created its own universe. However, there isn't a scientific experiment that can genuinely demonstrate that these universes exist. When it came to his final scientific quest, Hawking was troubled by this uncertainty and wasn't a big fan of the Multiverse concept, but he knew that ignoring it was a mistake because a theory that doesn't explain anything about our universe is pretty useless. Instead, Hawking and Hertog developed the math for a space probe that could detect gravitational waves from multiple different Big Bangs, so they believe they could test the Multiverse Theory and give us an actual chance to find evidence. Their paper is titled A Smooth Exit from Eternal inflation, which was submitted shortly before Hawkings passed away, had scientists talking. Some claim that if the paper had been published a little bit earlier, Hawking would have received a second Nobel Prize. The ideas also open the door to the incredible prospect of finding evidence of other universes in science.
