Multiverse Theory and Parallel Universes in Physics

Physicist Brian Greene discusses the scientific basis for the multiverse theory on NPR's Fresh Air with Terry Gross. Greene explains that mathematical models in quantum mechanics and cosmology suggest our universe may be just one of many in a grander multiverse. The hosts apply this concept to the current political climate, suggesting that individuals exist in different "wavelengths" or realities based on their information consumption and personal programming.
