Summary

Story summary

The multiverse is the collection of all possible universes, and its existence remains debated.
Quantum mechanics suggests outcomes are probabilistic, leading some to propose the many-worlds scenario with a new universe per outcome.
String theory connects by positing extra dimensions and vibrating strings, a framework some argue supports a multiverse.
Nevertheless, definitive evidence remains elusive, and scientific consensus about the multiverse has not been reached.
