00:00Physicist claims they have uncovered the first evidence of the multiverse.

00:04Cosmologist Laura Mersini-Hawton theorizes our universe emerged from a quantum wave function,

00:09creating a multiverse explaining the universe's earliest moments through quantum mechanics

00:14and offering new cosmic origins insights.

00:17The theory suggests our unlikely existence implies a multiverse.

00:21The universe's low initial entropy almost rules out the Big Bang.

00:26Penrose's calculation of a 1 in 10 to the power of 10 to the power of 123 chance

00:31supports Mersini-Hawton's quantum multiverse concept.

00:35Mersini-Hawton realized the early universe's quantum nature could be seen as a wave function.

00:40QM on the landscape quantum mechanics applied to the concept of string theory

00:44in regards to multiple possible energy states became her foundation for understanding universal origins.

00:51Mersini-Hawton's theory predicts other universes leave marks on ours.

00:55Collaborating with Holman and Takahashi, she identified cosmic microwave background signatures.

01:02A 900 million light-year void discovered by the Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe supports her theory.

01:09The multiverse theory isn't novel or unique.

01:11It appears all over physics, just more so in quantum mechanics.

01:15Physicist Paul Halpern explains,

01:17There are different ideas about the multiverse, cultural ideas and scientific ideas.

01:22Mersini-Hawton's many-worlds interpretation posits all quantum states exist in separate universes.

01:29Brandon Carter proposed our universe might be one of many versions capable of supporting life,

01:34suggesting special conditions for life to flourish.

01:37This finely-tuned Earth concept strengthens multiverse theories,

01:41highlighting unique life-supporting capabilities.

01:43Directly viewing other universes is impossible, but indirect evidence exists.

01:49Planck's satellite data analysis by Mersini-Hawton and D. Valentino supports the quantum landscape multiverse,

01:56despite observational limits.

01:58The multiverse theory challenges traditional scientific methodology,

02:02questioning testability and truth,

02:04but evolving physics encourages acceptance of theories with unobservable elements explaining observable phenomena.
