What If Universes Collide? Brane Cosmology and the Big Bang Explained Some cosmology models suggest our universe could be a “brane” floating in higher dimensions, with other branes nearby. If two branes collide, the impact could heat space up and create something that looks like a Big Bang. #multiverse #bigbang #cosmology #astrophysics #physicsexplained #extradimensions #planck #universe #scienceshorts | Academic Avengers

It’s a "brane" new world! This animation illustrates the brane multiverse, a theory that suggests our four-dimensional spacetime exists on a membrane, or “brane,” floating in a higher-dimensional space. In this vast bulk, other branes may exist – each with its own universe. But here’s where it gets even wilder: these universes can interact. When two branes collide, the resulting energy and chaos can be powerful enough to trigger a Big Bang, giving rise to all the matter and energy in a new unive
