Does anyone wonder if our universe is actually a small universe in another?

Question

I was watching men in black, and maybe our universe is part of a biggger one, like the one the cat in men in black was wearing. maybe we don't know becasue we havent traveled far enough past space.

Answer 1

Some seers opine that our universe is in orbit around a "Central Sun," and that many Universes are similarly around the "Central Sun."

See, for example, Mark Prophet, "The Masters and the Spiritual Path."

Answer 2

That idea is not new, well would be...

Answer 3

I think our universe is a blob from some leftover tuna noodle casserole stuck to the side of someone's oven mit.  And we're all like,"Oh, what's going on?  Oh, everything's so mystical!" and then we pan out to some middle age lunch lady with stretch marks and a goatee picking our universe off the side of her mit with the two teeth she has left in her head.  

Basically what I'm saying is we'll never know in this lifetime.  And that I hate tuna noodle casserole.

Answer 4

I tend to Think it's more like the universe is an atom, look at th structure, small things rotating around a nucleus, some charged, some not, (magnetic fields) protons, neutrons,

Only thing is what are we an atom of, an atom on a blade of grass in a field, that itself is an atom on a blade of grass in another field...

then you have to compensate for the time distortion, we are like in super slo-mo comparatively...never know, just my minds wanderings...

Answer 5

YOU CAN NOT GO TO SPACE AND EVEN THERN YOU MAY NOT SEE AS WE DO NOT KNOW WHERE AND HOW YOU COULD GO?

BETTER BE SATISFIED WITH OUR SMALL UNIVERSE WHICH BY ITSELF IS VERY VERY BIG ENOUGH?

Answer 6

it's possible in a way, but the definition of universe is supposed to be everything that exits, so if we discovered that we would say it is another higher dimension we are inside of, and both dimensions together are universe.

so far as far as i know some scientists like stephen hawking believe there are multiple dimensions smaller than us, curled up inside us, but not bigger ones.
