This is now known as the Multiple Worlds theory. Up until recent years, scientists were sure there was only one universe that contained everything known to humankind – hence the whole “uni” thing. How could you possibly travel to a different universe? 8:24 What would a parallel version of our world look like? 4:45 There are infinite me’s and you’s each in their own universe 😱 2:25 This is the idea that everything you thought you ever knew – our planet, the solar system, our galaxy, all the other stars and galaxies out there as far as our fancy telescopes can see – it’s just one itsy bitsy piece of a really giant puzzle! If you believe that multiple universes exist, then maybe you can feel a little better about having the great genius physicist Stephen Hawking in your camp! He had a pretty spectacular theory on multiple universes. It’s a pretty huge topic of debate in the scientific community, with big names on both sides. The theory of multiple or parallel universes is one that blurs the line between scientific reality and science fiction.

Since one observer can experience only their own branch, it appears as if the other possibilities have disappeared but in reality there is no reason why they could not still exist and just fail to interact with the other branches. There is nothing special about measurement, it is just the observer becoming entangled with a wave function in a superposition. Rather than proposing different dynamics for measurement, Everett suggests that measurement is something that happens naturally in the course of quantum particles interacting with each other. It is so logical in hindsight but with a bias towards the classical world, experiments and measurements to guide their thinking, it's understandable why the founders of quantum theory didn't come up with it. In the 1950's Hugh Everett proposed the Many Worlds interpretation of quantum mechanics. This did not sit well with scientists like Einstein and Schrödinger who believed there must be more going on, perhaps 'hidden variables'. Hence the Born rule came into being, saying the wave function should be interpreted statistically, that our universe at the most fundamental scale is probabilistic rather than deterministic. If we repeat the experiment many times, we find the statistics of these results mirror the amplitude of the wave function squared. But when there is a measurement, the wave function collapses leaving us with a definite particle detection. Then we invoke wave-particle duality, in essence things we detect as particles can behave as waves when they aren't interacting with anything. We can use the Schrödinger equation to solve for and evolve wave functions. I learned quantum mechanics the traditional 'Copenhagen Interpretation' way.
