多元宇宙
a collection of different universes that are thought by some people to exist at the same time
What we think of as the universe could be just one of trillions of universes on an indescribably vast stage called the multiverse. 我们所认为的宇宙可能不过是被称为多元宇宙的、大到无法描述的巨大舞台上数万亿个宇宙中的一个而已。
It is possible that somewhere else in this larger structure that we call the multiverse there are people like us. 有可能在这个被我们称为多元宇宙的更大结构中的其他地方,也有像我们这样的人。
