Some models
of the Big Bang
theory predict that the inflation that stretched space at the beginning
of time also produced an
infinite number of «pocket universes,» separated by impassable inflated areas
of space.
[17] Hawking, 46, notes that at the Big Bang moment «the density
of the universe and the curvature
of space - time would have been
infinite,» yet «because mathematics can not really handle
infinite numbers,... the general
theory of relativity... itself breaks down.»
There are an
infinite number of possible
theories.
Hawking is well
of this and stated so in the formation
of M
theory where he recognized an
infinite number of universes would be required based on a time constraint
of 13.8 billion years.
lionlylamb... Modern physical cosmology ALREADY offers the «Multiverse»
theories where our Universe is just one
of almost
infinite number of Universes.
The
theory is known as the «many worlds» interpretation, which is based on an
infinite number of co-existing, parallel, alternative realities in which every conceivable outcome
of every possible experimental result is realised.
The god hypothesis is just one
of an
infinite number of possibilities, though there is a higher probability for many other hypotheses and

Our current standard
theory of how the universe came to be, for example, predicts an
infinite expanse
of other universes, including an
infinite number in which duplicates
of you are reading this sentence and wondering if those other versions
of you really exist.
In short, string
theory predicts that the laws
of physics can take on an enormous variety
of forms, and inflation can create an
infinite number of pocket universes.
Almost everything in modern physics, from standard cosmology and quantum mechanics to string
theory, points to the existence
of multiple universes — maybe 10500
of them, maybe an
infinite number (see «The ultimate guide to the multiverse»).
Many
of the multiple - realities
theories suggest an unbounded
number of worlds, and if the
number of realities can be
infinite, then there can't be more VRs than realities; infinity is as many as there can be.
Eventually this idea grew into what is now known as the multiverse
theory, the notion that our observable universe is just one
of perhaps an
infinite number of cosmic domains, each with its own version
of the laws
of physics.
This has to be the best example
of the Many Worlds hypothesis by Hugh Everett, a
theory that postulates that an
infinite number of parallel universes exist thanks to quantum mechanics, with
infinite versions
of you doing
infinite number of actions with
infinite number of outcomes.
The
theory holds that, given the universe is
infinite, there must be an
infinite number of histories just like ours, and if it were possible to travel far enough in any direction today, we would eventually come across a universe identical to our observable universe right down to the last detail.
But once again Occam's Razor presents a barrier: ``... [F] or each accepted explanation
of a phenomenon, there is always an
infinite number of possible and more complex alternatives, because one can always burden failing explanations with ad hoc hypotheses to prevent them from being falsified... Put another way, any new, and even more complex,
theory can still possibly be true.
