**Ask a monkey a physics question thread**

I think I can prove to you very easily that not everything is possible... here are two statements...

This is the only universe in existence.

Other universes exist.

It is not possible for both these statements to be true. That is an example of something that has a zero percent probability of happening... multiple universes in a single universe model. It's pure contradiction. There must be an infinite amount of contradictions such as this, which means there will be an infinite number of impossibilities.

I thought current theoretical physics postulates that both (and neither?) are true.
