I think Dingbot hit the nail on the head with that flag. Moving on: In short, maybe. Truth is, no one knows what goes on out there besides what you can read in science journals. We can speculate and debate, but you'd never live long enough to get that far into space, so why bother, honestly.
This is just possibility, considered by some. It may answer the question, why our Universe has specific characteristics, some of which look like it is specifically fine-tuned to permit life: if there are multiple universes, others will have different characteristics, even a different number of dimensions - and out of this multitude of possibilites, a few universes have conditions suitable for life. There is no evidence for other universes, and if they do exist, it is not likely that we can have any contact with them.This is just possibility, considered by some.

At the present time, nothing direct. We have no evidence for the existence of any universe other than the one we happen to live in. The existence of others is purely speculation at this point. However, the existence of other universes -- an almost infinite number of them, most them completely hostile to intelligent life -- would answer the question of how this universe, that we happen to live in, seems to be so well "balanced" so as to permit us to be here. If there are, indeed, an infinite number of universes, then it should be no surprise that at least one of them would allow intelligence to develop within it. The other universes simply have nobody getting upset that they can't exist there.
The universe is the totality of intelligible, perceptible, and quantifiable reality that is the focus of human scientific research. It is a four-dimensional space-time continuum consisting of matter, energy, and forces. The universe consists of both inanimate matter (e.g. planets, stars, galaxies, asteroids, comets) and animate matter (e.g. plants, animals, humans, bacteria, fungi). The four fundamental forces in the universe are gravitation, electromagnetism, and the strong and weak nuclear forces. OR: The universe is everything, or the universe is everything around here -- thus, some talk about other universes. Sometimes the other universes are separated by distance, sometimes by time, sometimes by other imaginary conditions. The universe of real numbers does not include the square root of negative one -- another use of the word universe.
A fictional universe is an alternate space and time that feature people or other creatures invented by the imagination. Fictional universes are found in various literary and artistic media such as novels and short stories, theater and film, and television and games.
1) Why we're here is answered differently by different people. So any answer I give will be biased and not agreed upon by the majority. 2) The universe is the sum of everything around us that has: a) Matter b) Space c) Time Anything with those characteristics is within our universe. 3) There are no other types of universes. There is only the universe. The only other type of universe that could be theorized is one where antimatter was used instead of matter. Such universe's are in theory only and do not observably exist.
There are some theories which suggest the possibility of other universes. However, there is no definite proof of other universes, and as of know we know of only one, our Universe.
no. a universe is everything. so technically theyre arent other universes.
That's related to the idea that there are other universes, other than the one we are in.
The Universe is bigger. The Universe encompasses everything we know; it isn't known whether there are other universes.
There has been a lot of speculation about other universes, but it is just that: speculation. There is no firm evidence that other universes actually exist. Nor, for that matter, is there any firm evidence that other universes DON'T exist.
That isn't currently known. There are several ideas about multiple universes, but in many of those ideas, the other universes would not be "before" or "after" (for us, time itself starts when our Universe begins), but in parallel, so to speak.
there is no "beyond the universe" there just IS the universe the universe has no edge, there is nothing outside or beyond it Some theorists believe there is evidence suggesting that other universes exist, some of them extremely close to our own and folded into other unobservable dimensions. Some of these universes may in a way overlap our own, yet remain completely beyond detection within those other dimensions. It is possible that if these universes exist, there may be other principles of physics that regulate them. These ideas no longer belong to the realm of science fiction alone, and possible ways of indirectly observing the existence of such universes are not beyond reach.
'Multiverse' is an abstract noun because by definition it is purely hypothetical. It suggests the possibility of other universes and by definition we could never physically interact with other universes even if they exist. Other universes are not perceptible to our senses. They are physically disconnected from our universe.
The term 'multiverse' is often used to describe multiple universes, or sometimes, 'meta-universe'. Owing to the paucity of proof of the existence of other or alternate universes the term is considered to have only hypothetical application at this time.
Perhaps one, perhaps many. Anything you hear about other universes is just speculation for now.
This is "The theory" which may also explain the acceleration, that is taking place in the universe. Our universe is surrounded by some 4 such universes, probably four pre big bang masses. In turn the four pre big bang masses are surrounded by four universes. Those universes are surrounded again four pre big bang masses. So one universe is surrounded by four pre big bang masses and one pre big bang mass is surrounded by four universes. You can find the structure of carbon atoms in case of diamond to imagine the same. So your universe is getting acceleration due to gravitational forces of the four pre big bang masses and other universes. So there is probably nothing like 'Dark energy", which "Push" the universe. But there are probably four "Pre big bang masses" and other universes, which are "Pulling" your universe from the "Out side" to give acceleration to your universe. It may take another billions of years, for your universe to "Fall", on those pre big bang masses. Once your universe "Fall" on such pre big bang masses, that will initiate "Big bang" there in those pre big bang masses. This theory also explains to why the acceleration in expansion of the universe did not start from the starting of the big bang. The big bang started at the point, where the gravitational force of the outer universes was zero, like Lagrangian points. Once your universe started to expand, it drifted more and more from this zero gravity point. That gave an opportunity to outer pre big bang masses and universes to pull your universe apart, giving it an acceleration.
What "other universes"? There is no clear evidence that such "other universes" even exist. If they do exist, it would likely make no sense to speak about how old they are NOW. Even within our own Universe, it doesn't make sense to speak about "simultaneity" between far-away points; this means that the word "now" is not clearly defined!
