Can the multi-verse be infinite

Seldom does the concept of infinity apply to real things - it is a mathematical concept. '~a number large beyond measure'. For real objects, 'arbitrarily large' is usually an adequate descriptor.

In our universe, there are about 10 to the power of 80 particles - demonstrably a number well short of mathematical infinity. Even adding a few orders of magnitude to allow for dark matter does not add all that much!

Number concepts such as googol and googolplex are still well distant from infinity.

So it may be more comfortable to use the idea of 'arbitrarily large'.

Perhaps more to the point: we don't know what the "multiverse" is. Some cosmological theories posit that there's more to "everything that exists" than the observable universe, but by definition we don't know (and quite probably never can know) anything about it. The universe itself may be infinite ... we don't know (and probably can never know, since by definition we can't observe anything outside the observable universe, which we know for certain is not infinite). If there are "other universes", there may be an infinite number of them, or there may not, we don't know.

The multiverse is a relatively new theoretical framework for describing our universe and how it came to be. It is proposed by string theory and quantum mechanics. It is often described as infinite space or higher-dimensional space in which there are an infinite number or a huge finite number of universes including the observable universe in which we live.


Is there life elsewhere in the multiverse?

I guess there could be life elsewhere other than earth. If you consider the total size of the multiverse and the possibility of life like the temperature and the distance from the star and the availability of water etc.. i guess / suppose there could be planet/s somewhere in the multiverse which are as conducive as earth and may support the existence of life. their is thought to be an infinite number of universes so there would be infinite life


How many dots represent the number of parallel universes in the multiverse?
