The Multiverse/Timeline theory:
Basically it is the theory there is a universe with its own timeline for every possible event/action from the beginning of time until the end of time. Thus there are infinite yous branching back and splitting from you every instant until you were born (ie one of them never drew a first breath). You can look back and remember your life and your decisions to know who you are, but with other choices you would have been a different person. Future Proves Past. The you of 2 days ago is proven by the you of today, and the you of two days ago and the choices you made in those two days created the you that you are today.
An alternate you that made a different decision 3 days ago disproves the you that you remember two days ago; as they do not remember that you of two days ago because that you never existed their timeline. This is the how what Q said works – Future Proves Past.
One of the ways to visualize this is a tiled tv or video screen with a different similar image on each tile; and each tile is an instant in time for all of time. Now behind each tile cascaded behind is an infinite number of windows of all possible events at that moment in time. Let’s take it one step further; if you spun that image 90 degrees out of the TV it would show how each event is connected to each and every other moment in time and how it affects them.
Can those multiverses be interacted with or perceived or experienced? If so then time effects would work both ways as it would affect our past by changing it. Do those multiverses influence or local universe? Could the fractal dimensions of physics actually be these multiverses perceived not 90 degree but as say 0.333 degree or 24.8 degree?
If you draw and X and Y axis on a piece of paper they are at 90 degree and you have length and width. But if you want depth you must draw and axis at 45%. Technically that axis is a 0.5 degree dimension as it is not set at 90 degree. Yes I understand this is just a tool we use to perceive 3-D in a 2-D plane, by doing this we can shift our perspective to see a cube in a 2-D drawing. Think about that; we can use a partial dimensional view to visualize a higher dimension. Most of us do not know how to do that beyond four dimensions. Partial or Fractal dimensions are basically dimension seen/perceived at a 90 degree angle. Try this draw axis’s 6 or 9 or 12 of them equidistance’s from each other and gaze at the page; you can choose which two or three jump out at you that are the X, the Y, and the Z.
It has been proven that these fractal dimensions to influence our 4-D reality from static to how ferns grow. So far it is kind of random for us to find the influence and interactions, and some just call it a mathematical representation. I do not understand the higher math but it seems like all of a sudden in math a multidimensional (fractal) equation just coalesces or clicks into a 4-D answer and it answers a real life question.
What If our tech is beyond what we think? Physics changes all the time, Newton did, Einstein did and from that one we got nuclear power and bombs. What ifbehind the scenes they found a new way to look at the world that allows dimensions to be spun and placed in the way to make length basically irrelevant (a fractal dimension), or time? Distance would eliminate any problem with instantious travel – ie a space fold. Time would allow big changes in events globally and no consequence and it just changes entire timeline.
