The Unsettling Possibility Our Universe is Inside a Black Hole with Dr. Nikodem Poplawski
1,888Could our universe exist within a larger cosmic structure where black holes create new universes? In this Event Horizon interview, John Michael Godier speaks with theoretical physicist Dr. Nikodem Popławski about his groundbreaking hypothesis that our universe may have originated inside a black hole. Dr. Popławski discusses Einstein-Cartan theory, exploring how spacetime torsion prevents black hole singularities, possibly leading to the birth of new universes through cosmic bounces. In this in-depth exploration of cutting-edge cosmology and theoretical physics they discuss wormholes, white holes, quantum gravity, the structure of spacetime, and the philosophical implications of a black hole multiverse.
