Is it far-fetched? Of course! But right now, cosmologists are trying to figure out if there’s a group of multiple universes running parallel to each other—and whether they might be habitable.

Estimates of how fast the universe is expanding disagree. Could a new form of dark energy resolve the problem?

For nearly 10 years we’ve been operating in a search mode, and any day we could make a discovery,” said Gray Rybka, a ...
