- At Oak Ridge National Laboratory, eastern Tennessee, physicist Leah Broussard is trying to open a portal to a parallel universe.
In a series of experiments she plans to run this summer, Broussard will send a beam of subatomic particles down a 50-foot tunnel, past a powerful magnet, into an impenetrable wall.
If the setup is right, some of those particles will transform into mirror-image versions of themselves, allowing them to tunnel right through the wall. If that happens, Broussard will have uncovered the first evidence of a mirror world right alongside our own. If she detects even a single mirror particle, it would prove the visible universe is only half of what is out there, and the known laws of Physics are only half of a much broader set of rules. https://www.nbcnews.com/mach/science/scientists-are-searching-mirror-universe-it-could-be-sitting-right-ncna1023206 _________________ |

| I didn't read all of that but it sounds like he just got an atom and put a mirror next to it and now is saying "look everybody, another universe". _________________ Have you ever seen a Squonk's tears?

| Anyway, it just sounds like she distracted everybody with a giant magnet like out of the Beano and then when they were all confused because all metal things like paper clips were flying about she said there was another universe but you all missed it cos you were looking the other way. _________________ Have you ever seen a Squonk's tears?

| I think we've entered a parallel dimension where the 43rd nicest forum in the world, this one, has descended into normal Piraña pit-bull behaviour. |
