When you are looking at your phone it does seem to exist in just one state a time,right?There are many times I ask myself is there a version of myself that took a bus ride and went to a different destination?Is that even remotely possible?

What our naked eye sees is that objects seem to exist in just one state a time,something only happens if you see it.In quantum theory,an elementary particle such as an electron does not exist in a single state but rather in a superposition(that is multiplicity of locations,velocities and even orientations).

Almost all our sci-fi movies show existence of a multiverse.What are the chances of this mind blowing theory being true?Well….

All these began in 1954 with a great theoretical physicist,Hugh Everett.This guy imagined a multiverse,full of different realms in which all the possibilities dictated by quantum mechanics could exist at once.

I don’t want to make him sound crazy,but an idea he was sharing with his friends in campus,is what he decided he’ll use as his doctoral thesis.I’m sure we all know how that went,he even stopped practicing theoretical physics and joined research team of the pentagon.

Fast forward,Everett’s notion of a multiverse is gradually gaining credibility among physicists.

Yes,there are ways to prove this,may sound crazy but true .

In quantum mechanics,particles do not have set properties when looking at them.Let us use Schrödinger’s cat paradox.If there was a cat in a box,it can either be dead or alive but you only can confirm either by opening the box,just proving how we see a single reality.But with quantum mechanics there’ll be various outcomes.

We don’t know what the shape of space-time is exactly.One prominent theory is that it is flat and goes on forever,this presents the possibility of many universes being out there.

Another theory is that the we exist on a bubble universe.When looking at space-time as a whole,some areas of space stop inflating like the Big Bang inflated our universe.Others however will keep on getting larger.So,if we picture our own universe as a bubble it’s sitting in a network of bubble universes of space.

All this is a popular theme for sci-fi movies and a subject and a subject of fascination for ordinary folks who don’t know or care about the paradoxes of quantum theory.After all ,isn’t it mind blowing to imagine that every choice we make in life-from who we marry,where we live,what color we dye in our hair,what we eat for lunch-spawns a separate universe in which another version of ourselves did something different.

As stated by Hawking “We are not down to a single,unique universe,but our findings imply a significant reduction of the multiverse to a much smaller range of possible universes”All we can do is wait to see if we’ll meet our evil twins.

This is an example post, originally published as part of Blogging University. Enroll in one of our ten programs, and start your blog right.

You’re going to publish a post today. Don’t worry about how your blog looks. Don’t worry if you haven’t given it a name yet, or you’re feeling overwhelmed. Just click the “New Post” button, and tell us why you’re here.

Why do this?

• Because it gives new readers context. What are you about? Why should they read your blog?
• Because it will help you focus you own ideas about your blog and what you’d like to do with it.

The post can be short or long, a personal intro to your life or a bloggy mission statement, a manifesto for the future or a simple outline of your the types of things you hope to publish.

To help you get started, here are a few questions:

• Why are you blogging publicly, rather than keeping a personal journal?
• What topics do you think you’ll write about?
• Who would you love to connect with via your blog?
• If you blog successfully throughout the next year, what would you hope to have accomplished?

You’re not locked into any of this; one of the wonderful things about blogs is how they constantly evolve as we learn, grow, and interact with one another — but it’s good to know where and why you started, and articulating your goals may just give you a few other post ideas.

Can’t think how to get started? Just write the first thing that pops into your head. Anne Lamott, author of a book on writing we love, says that you need to give yourself permission to write a “crappy first draft”. Anne makes a great point — just start writing, and worry about editing it later.

When you’re ready to publish, give your post three to five tags that describe your blog’s focus — writing, photography, fiction, parenting, food, cars, movies, sports, whatever. These tags will help others who care about your topics find you in the Reader. Make sure one of the tags is “zerotohero,” so other new bloggers can find you, too.
