This section shows the list of typical questions that an enthusiastic person would have about the universe and the laws governing it. Each lecture and program at Multiversal Journey tries to answer some of these questions.

  1. Why are there four forces in nature?
  2. Why is there only one dimension for time?
  3. Can one single equation explain the universe and its laws?
  4. What is the size of the universe?
  5. What is the overall shape of the universe?
  6. How old is the universe?
  7. What is the meaning of space and time?
  8. What are the extra dimensions of space?
  9. What was before the big bang?
  10. When will the universe end?
  11. Why can we not go faster than the speed of light?
  12. What are dark matter and dark energy?
  13. Do parallel universes exist?
  14. Is time travel possible?
  15. Do magnetic monopoles exist?
  16. What is quantum entanglement?
  17. What are cosmic strings?
  18. Do white holes exist?
  19. Why the laws of quantum (the small) are different from the laws of the large?
  20. Why the laws of physics fail in a singularity?
