I've been thinking about Prof Kaku's version of the parallel universe
theory. His version basically says that "baby" universes form on the surface of our universe under black-hole scale concentrations of mass, and eventually they tear off completely, severing the "umbilical cord" that is a black hole in a parent universe, feeding a a white hole in the fledgling universe, which is simply spewing out matter and energy (this is no different from them big bang our universe experienced) So, for every black hole forms in our universe, it spawns a big bang that grows into a child universe... matter and energy keep getting funneled into this black hole, and out into this parallel universe big-bang event and eventually when it's had enough it disconnects itself. I'm not sure if I like this... First of all, it means that there is hard-limit on the amount of times this can happen. There is a limit to how many generations of universe can be "born" as all the matter and energy gets siphoned off the higher generations into lower ones, eventually a universe will be either be born without enough stuff to form it's own black hold and "give birth" or, perhaps it won't be able to absorb enough matter/energy from it's parent to actually disconnect itself, at which point it's a wart on the surface of ours... what would this be like? Two universes joined by a black-hole, matter and energy being bounced between them and generally making universal heat-death for both twice as fast as it should have been? Or maybe it'll just absorb it's parent altogether and conserve matter/energy that way... You now have universe full of matter that periodically squeezes itself through a black hole. It's the same universe just giving rise to itself over and over again... a totally stubby universe? You can get around all this by adding a "fountain of stuff" to our current universe, a "white hole" he called it, but the existence of such a thing would simply mean that we've not yet cut the umbilical cord from our parent. Perhaps there is a "queen universe" at the top of it all, that is being constantly fed, and constantly spawning off sprogs that eventually die When I say, die, I mean "heat death"... where there all the goodstuff is so evenly averaged out that there is no potential for any work to be done... perfect entropy or perhaps cold death, where the sprogs inflate cooling themselves as they do simply freeze over... either way, you have universes worth of matter an energy going to waste... it would be elegant if the queen universe at the top of this all was nourished by dead and/or sterile universes... can't suppose how this would happen though. The worst thing about this is that it leaves us in the same boat... just on a different scale, the eventuality will be all matter and energy becoming useless, not just in our universe, but on a multiversal scale... the original big universe will die, having given all it's goodstuff away to generations of universes that will eventually become so watered down they can't reproduce. Multiversal death... which I'm reliably told "sucks ass". |

Down through the ages, many races, cultures and philosophies have alluded in their writings to the existence of other dimensions.
