Such a universe probably does not have bad guy versions of Captain Kirk and Mr. The particular corners of the multiverse that Randall is exploring may interact with our own universe only through gravity. ![]() But as Randall cautions, “It’s not just a carbon copy of our universe, which a lot of people think of when they hear that phrase.” So what does the science say, and how does the science of interdimensional travel stack up to the Upside Down in “Stranger Things?”Īs cosmologist Lisa Randall told Smithsonian, parallel universes may in fact exist in other dimensions, separated from our own familiar surroundings by distances vastly smaller than the size of an atomic nucleus.
