The concept of the Multiverse is an old one, one that has been approached primarily as a matter of metaphysics or philosophy. But is it scientific? And, if it is scientific, why do so many of its most ardent supporters describe their 'faith' in the Multiverse? This video explores several contrasting viewpoints, from Andrei Linde to Paul Davies as well as ways to test Eternal Inflation, one of the leading theories that predicts a Multiverse. 00:00 Introduction 01:00 Fine-tuning 02:20 Karl Popper: Falsification and Astrology 04:00 Steven Weinberg & the Weak Anthropic Principle 04:45 Paul Davies 07:00 Sabine Hossenfelder: Why the multiverse is religion, not science. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-dSua_PUyfM References: •First Observational Tests of Eternal Inflation: https://arxiv.org/pdf/1012.1995v3.pdf Phys. Rev. Lett. 107, 071301 •Interview with Andrei Linde "“Can you really prove that it is just universe? The insistence that we have just one universe has to be proved.” The article continues: "Linde has continued to push forward his thinking about cosmic inflation, melding it with string theory, one of the leading explanations of the particles and forces underlying the laws of physics. This has further strengthened his faith in the multiverse because it provides a mechanism for the laws of physics to vary in each new universe as it arises." https://www.ft.com/content/9a306276-bf03-11e3-8683-00144feabdc0 •Quanta Magazine "The Multiverse's Measure Problem" https://www.quantamagazine.org/the-multiverses-measure-problem-20141103 •Lee Smolin: Belief in the multiverse is unscientific because it has no evidence to support it, thus requiring blind faith. https://www.irishtimes.com/news/science/belief-in-the-multiverse-a-form-of-blind-faith-1.2153271 •Stephen Hawking's 'breathtaking' final multiverse theory completed two weeks before he died : •Challenges to the Big Bang paradigm: https://wmap.gsfc.nasa.gov/universe/bb_cosmo_infl.html •Weinberg's position on the Multiverse: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RPeXddjctaU •Weinberg quote: www.azquotes.com/quote/928784 •Watch me & Stephen C.
