None of that makes any sense.

The laws of nature can still be implied with something being infinite.

Entropy is still a thing. There is a reason why 99 percent of everything is hydrogen.

I can't remember where but I read a physicist pointing to a definition of multi-verse to basically mean...neighboring big bangs. so we have our known big bang as a universe and other big bangs as multi-verses. I hate that definition. If they're all still in the same space (just different rooms in one house) calling it a multi-verse is weird. I want multi-verse to mean super-imposed universes separated by planes of consciousness. Thank you

Infinity could exist and not everything could be possible.

All signs point to the universe of empty space being infinite. We have never had any evidence that the laws of nature change.

Infinite emptiness doesnt mean infinite matter or energy.

Even if there was infinite energy, the infinite nothingness could be larger.

Chaos still wants everything to settle into its lowest energy state. So that infinity besides our visible universe could just be dissociated quarks

We also use infinity in physics. We havent proved infinity but we have used infinity to discover other things.

Look, the multiverse exists.

We will never be able to see other universes or prove that they exist.

Whenever a black hole sucks energy and matter through it’s singularity that energy and matter is spit out into a new singularity thus creating a new universe.

So energy is infinite.

I have but I don’t know that it needs to imply anything about multiverses

Why use a comet? Aren't you basically just describing what we've already done with Voyager 1 and 2? Both contained the Golden Record which is intended to provide some basic information about humanity to any alien civilization which happens across them in the distant future.

I have an exact replica of the Golden Record cover piece framed and hanging on my wall. Its incredible.

>Infinity is by definition a never ending loop lol

well, that's entirely false

1. Infinite energy
   You're thinking that the infinite universes exist inside each other sequentially like a chain, with each universe feeding energy into and supporting the ones below it into infinity. That model would certainly require infinite energy, but it's not the only model out there. There's also the 'floating bubbles' model, where each universe is self-contained and generating its own energy.
   In fact, the chain could also be self-contained. Like matryoshka dolls.
2. Wave-Form Collapse
   We simply don't know enough about multiversal physics to know if there's a way to access other universes without collapsing into each other. It could be that there's no way to confirm the theory, or that we can only look in and never step foot there.
   On a smaller scale, we don't yet have a way to travel faster than light. But we can conceive of multiple possible ways of making it happen. It could be that FTL travel is a prerequisite, that FTL travel affects physics in some weird way that would make it possible, or even easy.
   We won't know until we get there.
3. Disney Shills
   Look, even if we confirmed the issue beyond a shadow of a doubt one way or the other, it wouldn't affect the inifinite possibilities model of creating media. There's always going to be someone that thinks, "Hey, but what if they were pirates?", and there's always going to be someone that exploits that for money. That's the basis of corporate greed.
   A couple hundred years ago, it was the North Pole. Then it was the Northwest Passage. Then it was Atlantis, Shangri-La, the Centre of the Earth, the Far East. Today it's far-off planets and alternate universes. The possibility of the unknowable will always fascinate and inspire people.
   And fascination opens wallets.

Infinite regress is what you’re looking for, and yes prolly

That’s so creepy but is theres infinite energy ? isn’t infinite nonexistent if it’s infinite. The thought was scary I don’t like thinking this stuff lol it affects me. I need a Valium.

I'll get back to you on that

Have you read Sean Carroll's writing on it? That'd be a better idea than posing this question to /r/space.

Beyond Falsifiability: Normal Science in a Multiverse

Or how about his 2+ hour long podcast episode titled "The Philosophy of the Multiverse"

the universe is only locally real

> be apart of it.

Did you mean to say "a part of"?
Explanation: apart is an adverb meaning separately, while a part is a noun meaning a portion.

I think there's a good sense in which philosophy drives the gear for the explanation, in that the big bang theory eventually comes, at least partly, from a metaphysical consideration of the universe (e.g., importantly, a consideration of the nature of space).

There's not really any reason to put it on a comet instead of just sending it on its own. I guess it could aid in detection but you can also just slap a ton of reflectors on the probe and achieve the same result

Yeah another cool thought experiment, but a drastic over simplification and likely highly inaccurate. Still fun to think about what happens over an infinite amount of time.

Imagine the forum where everyone informs the rest that they have thoughts and opinions but are taking into account other people’s thoughts and opinions? It would be mostly that, wouldn’t it?

Falsifiability....String theory has entered the chat.

I watched this documentary and enjoyed the infinity hotel example. Best visualization of infinity I’ve seen.

There is measurable evidence on the quantum level, the issue is finding a way to measure in the macro level. And, yes, once we can, it may falsify the multiverse hypothesis.

The universe isnt locally real
