That Sherman Klump laugh at the end from Neil 😂

[BrownMan]

Great cast amazingly smart each of them but she tied it well at the end 😅

[ronaldswanson]

What panel was this? Jordan Klepper, and Tiffany Haddish and Neil Degrasse Tyson?

[stivenrus]

I was working on this conspect with. My physics teacher 50 yrs ago. Also a beginning of frequency of light and matter vs darkness. They said not possible, look at us now. Finally getting the Door open. Congratulations.

Although Neil was sarcastic, Michio Kaku was quite serious about this topic.!

[SherriLyles]

"or marriage" 😂. My thoughts were on the same wavelength. I was thinking to myself, just one life is exhausting enough, but multiple lives is just tiresome.

I still can't wrap my head around the cat in the box theory.

Everything everywhere all at once was probably the best movie to watch on lsd. I have never -ever- felt more connected to the universe, myself, my consciousness, and the world around me until I watched that movie on a silly little hippy paper

-Well Michio, I'm one of the many original comic book nerds and amongst us we've known about the multiverse in comics for at least the last 30 or 40 years, in Marvel Comics alone most definitely within the last 30 years. Image Comics itself is the concept of multiple universes existing simultaneously. But it's true, it is only a recent reveal in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU).

It's interesting the route they decided to take to introduce the multiverse concept in the MCU because in Marvel Comics the idea kind of starts to begin to be introduced in the X-Men with "The Age of Apocalypse" (and sort of Spider-Man with all of his clones, spawning the many different Spider-Men/women); but in the MCU mutants haven't really been formally introduced yet (even though Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver are technically mutants, being Magneto's children, and they were in the MCU's "Age of Ultron" and given some kind of weird "altered human" designation). I've always wondered why they don't just stick to the already written/established comic book history and canon. It really use to urk the crap out of me but when the MCU got really going they did such a good job, in my opinion, of making certain canon events happen but just in different orders and one feeding into the next, causing things to happen due to alternative circumstances culminating in the major canon event happening.

i think i can explain multiple universes. i see the universe as a huge pattern. if you have a star each lobe would be very similar to each other, a particle moving down one lobe the chances are that a particle would also be moving down the other lobes!

I really don’t understand why people think that not being able to know what something is until we measure and measuring itself can change its state is so illogical.

Sure, if we use light to take a measurement of something in the macro world, the macro object doesn’t appear to change, but certainly the light undergoes lots of changes to make the measurement.

The answer isn’t “physicists just learn to live with it.” Physicists just use a probabilistic language to describe or simplify there observations that inevitably confuses people who don’t have a fundamental understanding of basic concepts in physics and math. If physicists used simple long winded explanations, it would sound less like sci-fi and more like every day life.

[klaybiggins]

Wow, that was such a mind expanding explanation.

Marriage IS the bringing together of two Parallel Universes. 🤔

[smoothcast]

As a scientist, "you just get used to it" is antithetical.

[blazingstars]

He’s coming from the origin of this dimension. Going beyond is like a vision without matter.

[WhoKnowsWhatTheirDoing]

Big fan of yall. Where is Michio Kakus Youtube channel 👀?

[chrisholbrow]

So for the last 6 months i think i have been living in one universe but go to another universe when i sleep. The reason forbthis is i woke up 6 months or so ago with this intense feeling that i had lost something very dear to me but i could not figure it out at all. Now since then i have lost count of the times i have just been about to wake up, when you are atill asleep but are aware of things happening around you, and i could sense people were looking for me or talking about me and were wanting to return this thing that while im "asleep" i know what this object is and who these people are but as soon as i open my eyes and go downstairs to open the door i am literally asking myself what am i doing, why am i doing this. I still remember vaguely that i am missing something still but again, i do not know what it is or who it was i was hearing. Now i am either going insane or I am somehow linked to an alternative reality when i am asleep. 😮😅😂

If your universe is inside a temporal singularity (black hole), there is a means for everything to be everywhere when you get near the background of the universe (absolute zero). If a black hole rotates with a centrifugal force at the center that exceeds the gravitional strain, an expansion would begin in the hot, dense state of the black holes core. If the rotation rate increases, that inflation would accelerate.

[Sophie.Kurt.]

Tiffany haddis is everything everywhere 😂😂😂😂

[marianagyorgyfalvi]

In fact, the multitude of versions would help to clarify the only possibility of being just a spider!😁

[seanpbigler]

Funny, Stan Lee made the Marvel comic books called What IF.
