Dreaming awake - universe and dinosaurs



I woke up this morning to a thought that I find quite elegant and pleasing; it has to do with dinosaurs and the universe.

I was like: " whaaaat? Can it be real? " well, it can, in my head and in this blog it can.

In the last two days I've read Calvino's short story "the Dinosaurs" ( thoroughly recommend it) and seen, what I think is the first episode of " through the worm hole" where they explained the M- theory. 

A propos, I never really agreed with the Big Bang theory, of course I will never say it's bonkers, because I ain't a scientist or anything, but it never convinced me in the whole, so some time ago I learned about some of the different theories about how the universe began, some of which I could see as more plausible. I also think that we will never really know what happened, because humans are a proud lot, whatever we find out will serve to demolish or confirm something we already though through...with our limited means that we only develop by understanding our limited surrounding.

Anyhow, back to my crazy though: taking into account the fact that we also don't exactly know what happened with the dinos ( yeah yeah, I know, the meteor...) and taking into account the membrane theory, by which there are different universes only a small distance apart, what if the extinction or the appearance of the dinosaurs is due to a small collision of two universes, where two parts merge and puff, the mighty dinos are gone. 

There, I said it. I am aware that I was half asleep! and that it's still early In the morning for me. But I thought I would share it with someone before I forget my half-awake dream.
