Earlier, I had written how small we were in the universe. At one point, we believed the universe orbited Earth. Later we realized that we orbited the sun, which is just one of many in our galaxy. Our galaxy is just one of millions in this universe. That, in of itself, makes us seems so insignificant. Earlier this week, I saw a lecture by Brian Greene, a theoretical physicist. He postulated that there isn’t one “Universe” as we know it, in fact, there are many other universes. The terms we use are already obsolete. He believes that there are many, if not infinite other universes, or multiverses.
Below is a talk he gave at a TED event. I’m amazed at how he is able to communicate complex subject matter, orders of magnitude greater than any of our work, and explain it to a layperson.
