According to the BIG BANG theory, our Universe is 13.8 billion years old. Humans have evolved only about 200,000 years ago on this planet. That's 0.00144% of the age of the Universe.
In so little time, we have discovered and decoded some of the most fascinating laws of nature through our observation and experiments. We have developed telescopes and microscopes to see some of the largest objects out there as well as the tiny cells down here on earth. We have developed machines smart enough to make their own decisions in response to their surroundings. Computers! capable of solving complex problems in seconds. something that our species can hardly achieve on our own.
People who play video games would be able to relate comfortably to what I am about to say. Look at the video games 20 years ago, and video games that are available now... what a huge difference! we have developed enough hardware and software technology to simulate a character inside a completely virtual environment
Now imagine if we Humans somehow survive here for just 0.1% of the age of the universe, That is another 13600000 years from now. we would surely have incredible computers with the capacity to simulate an entire universe sized environment in it. with all the creatures on different planets in different galaxies.
If this seems possible, there is a great possibility that we are living inside one of such simulations right now. Created by species that reached the extraordinary level of computing technology.
Are we in a simulation? Can we ever break out of such a simulation?
