Why is there no evidence of a multiverse theory?

Hello, Miles Alexis Palmares !

The predictions from the few remaining hypotheses, like the many-worlds interpretation of quantum mechanics, would be indistinguishable from the predictions of their non-multiverse predictions. So any evidence we find would also be evidence of the non-multiverse.

Basically because of the horizon problem: we cannot see anything directly from before 380,000 years after the Bang and infer indirectly back to about a trillion trillion trillionth of a second after the Bang.

How would you feel if your friend confided in you that she is cheating on her husband, knowing that he loves her deeply? What emotional and ethical considerations would you grapple with in response to her revelation?

As far as multiverse theories go, most of them require us to see before the Bang, and because of the horizon problem, we can’t.
