Evidence shows that the universe is a three-dimensional projection

Research by international scientists provides evidence to support the three-dimensional cosmological model hypothesis, which exists in parallel with the standard cosmological model accepted by astronomers.

The idea of the universe as a hologram does not mean that people and all objects contained in it are not real, according to IFL Science. The holographic principle means that all the properties of the three-dimensional universe (along with one-dimensional time) are encoded on a two-dimensional surface.

"Imagine that everything you see, feel, and hear in three-dimensional space (along with your perception of time) actually originates from a two-dimensional field," the lead author of Research - Professor Kostas Skenderis, University of Southampton, UK said.

"This idea is similar to a three-dimensional image, such as in a credit card, encoded in a two-dimensional surface, but on a universal scale."

According to a study published in Physical Review Letters on January 27, scientists tested a series of three-dimensional models with very young cosmic observations provided by the European Space Agency's Planck observatory. level. The team excluded a number of models, but the remaining ones were consistent with observations.

This is an interesting finding because it provides a better way for scientists to study the validity of the holographic projection universe, although the simulations so far are not as good as the standard universe hypothesis, made up of dark matter and energy, and a small fraction of tangible matter.

"Einstein's general theory of relativity explains how the macro phenomena of the universe are very good, but it is difficult to explain the origin and mechanism of the universe at the quantum level , " Skenderis explained.

"Scientists have worked for decades to combine quantum gravity theory and Einstein's theory. Some believe that the concept of a three-dimensional projection universe has the potential to unite both. I hope our research is a step forward in this process. "

Three-dimensional projection principles have been developed in the study of black holes and applied a lot in string theory. Although it cannot directly lead to "theory for everything" , its versions can explain the universe we are seeing.
