HOW many universes are there? Cosmologists Andrei Linde and Vitaly Vanchurin at Stanford University in California calculate that the number dwarfs the 10500 universes postulated in string theory, and raise the provocative notion that the answer may depend on the human brain.
The idea that there is more than one universe, each with its own laws of physics, arises out of several different theories, including string theory and cosmic inflation. This concept of a "multiverse" could explain a puzzling mystery - why dark energy, the furtive force that is accelerating the expansion of space, appears improbably fine-tuned for life. With a large number of universes, there is bound to be one that has a dark energy value like ours.

This is all known already but it's still cool to read up on it again every now and then. I personally believe in Multiverses as true, but to the point that every conscious action made by a conscious being creates an array of parallel universes. My beleif is more complex than that but I just don't think universes are limited by physical dimensions leaving an infinite number of parallel universes throughout the ethos.

Multiple Universes, Strings and Dark Energy are crackpot theories. This is intellectual fraud. Learn real science:

Real science is a crackpot theory. Learn to accept other people's ideas.
