The Multiverse

Yesterday i saw a part of a transmission of the program Horizon on BBC Worldservice. I just fell in the program when they described the realisation that we must live in an 11-dimensional universe based on string theory. This is nowadays called M-theory. The major advantages of this theory are the explanation of gravities weakness, the removal of big-bang’s singularity and the granularity of our universe. They now have a model that explains the creation of our universe as a collision between two branes in these 11-dimensions. Interestingly this11th dimension contains a lot of energy. This might explain the dark matter/energy in our universe. So we see in our universe effects of these other dimensions.

One of the consequences of this M-theory is the possible existence of an infinite number of universes, the Multiverse. Each of these universes has its own physical laws. And people are already thinking of creating such universes in the lab.

It made me wonder whether one these 11 dimensions also is the Holoverse. In Stephen Hawkings book, Het Universum, he explains that branes can store all the information in our universe. Ervin Laszlo suggests (Kosmische Visie, p127) that this information leads to specific of a universe.
