Holographic Universe May Not Be Science Fiction, New Study Suggests

An international study conducted by a group of scientists have presented researchers new "compelling" evidence that the universe could very well be an enormous complex hologram.

The radical notion of a holographic universe is not as recent as it would seem.

The theory has been revealed to be circulating scientists' minds for about a decade now; traced back to the 90's by Leonard Susskind and Gerard 't Hooft's proposed theory that the universe may be a three-dimensional projection from a two-dimensional source.

The team of researches are composed of scientists from different nations; namely, the UK, Canada, as well as Italy. The recent study was conducted by Niayesh Afshordi, Claudio Corianò, Luigi Delle Rose, Elizabeth Gould, and Kostas Skenderis.

The theory, initially surfaced two decades ago, suggests that the "reality" perceived as 3-D in today's definition, may come from a 2-D surface projection.

Skenderis have explained that the perception of these three dimensions can be likened to a holographic imprint on a credit card; the image seems to be hovering with images presenting an X, Y, Z plane, but ultimately coming from a two-dimensional surface.

The team of scientists continue to explain that to put things into perspective, very much like a 3-D film in the cinema comes from a flat, split image from a 2-D source.

The results of the study suggests that the universe humans perceive may come from a primordial projection that may very well go back to the big bang. The source image, along with time, is blurred until it becomes defined and passes the cosmic microwave background that ultimately shows the "reality" that everyone perceives as relatively true.

The study may not answer all of the cosmic mysteries but scientists believe that it could be a gateway to a new venture in Cosmology, or even Physics itself. The results could lead to a new outlook on the relationship of time and space altogether.
