Wild theory says our universe has a TWIN; it will explain Big Bang, Dark Matter

Imagine a universe, just like our own, filled with stars and galaxies. Inside it is a solar system which has its own planet Earth, but with a big difference. Time travels in reverse there! If this sounds like science fiction plot to you (and reminds you of the movies Tenet and Mr. Nobody), then you’re not alone. However, a strange new theory suggests that a twin-universe which has been running backwards ever since the Big Bang can finally reveal the secrets of dark matter to us. Stranger still, once you understand the theory, it does make some sense. Read on to find out about this anti-universe and how it can explain the existence of dark matter. This Live Science article explains it.

Dark matter refers to a hypothetical form of matter which is believed to account for around 85% of the matter in the universe. What is interesting about dark matter is that it does not interact with electromagnetic radiation, which means it does not absorb, reflect or emit any radiation including light. Hence, it is impossible to observe conventionally. Then, how do we even know Dark Matter even exists? We do know something exists because of all the anomalies in astrophysical observations including gravitational effect, which cannot be explained unless there is more matter present than what can be observed. And this matter is called dark matter.

The tricky thing with dark matter is that experts have not been able to prove its existence, let alone understand what it is or what it does. But, if we are to believe this twin-universe theory which imagines a universe running backwards in time since the Big Bang, we may not have to prove its existence anymore.

The theory works on the premise that before the big bang theory, the early universe was so
