I guess I’ve always been confused by the Many Worlds Interpretation of Quantum Physics and the fact that it’s taken seriously. Like is there any proof at all that universes outside of our own exist?

I admit that I might be dumb, but, how does one look at atoms and say “My God! There must be many worlds than just our one?”

I just never understood how Many Worlds Interpretation was valid, with my, admittedly limited understanding, it just seemed to be a wild guess no more strange than a lot things we consider too outlandish to humor.

    This theory is called Schwarzschild Cosmology, and has actually gained some traction recently based on some new experiments.

    As a youth this made intuitive sense to me as I first learned about different cosmological theorems. A black hole is essentially a pocket of mass on which a set of physical properties exist that are different from its containing universe, with the boundary between different physics being the event horizon and the “Big Bang” being the initial collapse of the singularity.
