The Black Hole Mirage Theory

Concept

About

The Black Hole Mirage Theory proposes that our universe might be a three-dimensional membrane or brane within a higher-dimensional space. This concept draws from theories in string theory and cosmology, suggesting that our observable universe could be embedded in a larger, multidimensional space known as the "bulk." The idea involves the notion that our universe could have emerged from a black hole in this higher-dimensional space, with the Big Bang being a "mirage" of a collapsing star in a different universe. This theory attempts to address long-standing cosmological puzzles by providing an alternative to the traditional Big Bang singularity. It suggests that our universe originated outside an event horizon, protected from the singularity, and remains a feature of a four-dimensional star's collapse. While speculative, the theory is grounded in modern mathematical frameworks and offers testable predictions, making it an intriguing area of study in theoretical physics.
