...first credible suggestion that alternate universes might exist came in the early 1950s when a young physics graduate student named Hugh Everett was toying with some of the more bizarre implications of quantum mechanics. That theory, accepted by all serious physicists, says that the motions of atoms and subatomic particles can never be predicted with certainty; you can tell only where, say, an electron will probably be a millisecond from now. It could quite possibly end up somewhere else...
...Everett had another idea: when you locate the electron, he argued, the world splits into multiple universes. In each one, the electron has a different position--and all these many worlds, each equally real, go on to have their own futures. In this so-called many-worlds interpretation of quantum mechanics, the universe is incredibly prolific, since each particle in the cosmos produces a multitude of new universes in each instant--and in the next instant, every one of these new universes fragments again. Yet plenty of physicists consider this to be a perfectly valid idea...
...disclosed last week that she is pregnant with her second child, has already been the subject of public debate on whether she should marry the baby's father, British director GUY RITCHIE. And while a London paper has speculated that a baby boy will be named after Rupert Everett, Madonna's co-star in The Next Best Thing, there are other obvious choices.
