      Good question – it is likely there are at least two universes. This is because for every particle of matter in the universe there is a piece of anti-matter in its mirror image. Its not possible to travel there because anti versions of ourselves are already there. My anti brain is doing exactly the same thing as my brain – which is odd as it is thinking about the fact that it exists itself. I’m going to have to stop here before my brain (and anti brain) explode……

      I don’t understand what is meant by more than one universe. I know it comes up in one interpretation of quantum theory… but I still don’t know what it means.

      There are theories that more than one universe exists. No-one has proven this though, and so at the moment no-one really knows.
