章 550: Intermission: A Discussion about the Multiverse(From Earth's Point of View)

(This intermission is all about what people from Earth think about the Multiverse. All words that have been written here are real, so don't doubt their credibilty.)

The multiverse, also known as a maniverse, megaverse, metaverse, omniverse, or meta-universe, is a hypothetical group of multiple universes.

Together, these universes comprise everything that exists: the entirety of space, time, matter, energy, information, and the physical laws and constants that describe them.

The different universes within the multiverse are called "parallel universes", "other universes", "alternate universes", or "alterverses".

***********

Multiple universes have been hypothesized in cosmology, physics, astronomy, religion, philosophy, transpersonal psychology, music and all kinds of literature, particularly in science fiction, comic books and fantasy.
