METAVERSE BEYOND THE UNIVERSE

The word “Metaverse” literally means “BEYOND THE UNIVERSE,” and at its most basic level can be described as encompassing a digital ecosystem that provides a “3D experience that can utilize augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR), and persistent connections to create an immersive world.”

Fortnite director at game awards says the goal is “to create a metaverse, a place where all IP can live together, where all kinds of experiences can happen” .

The metaverse is the "internet" equivalent of verses; it is a network of computers simulating universes, and is set within a Xenoverse. It contains a huge amount of multiverses, collectively representing a lot unique multiverses under a continuous set of laws each with their own combination of matter, space, energy, time, etc.

To the outsider, it may look like a souped-up version of Virtual Reality (VR) - but some people think the metaverse could be the future of the internet. In fact, the belief is that it could be to VR what the modern smartphone is to the first clunky mobile phones of the 1980s. Instead of being on a computer, in the metaverse you might use a headset to enter a virtual world connecting all sorts of digital environments.

Unlike current VR, which is mostly used for gaming, this virtual world could be used for practically anything - work, play, concerts, cinema trips - or just hanging out. Most people envision that you would have a 3D avatar - a representation of yourself - as you use it. But because it's still just an idea, there's no single agreed definition of the metaverse.

Why is it suddenly a big thing?

Hype about digital worlds and augmented reality pops up every few years, but usually dies away. However, there is a huge amount of excitement about the metaverse among wealthy investors and big tech firms, and no-one wants to be left behind if it turns out to be the future of the internet.

There's also a feeling that for the first time, the technology is nearly there, with advancements in VR gaming and connectivity coming close to what might be needed.

Beam me up Scotty I am ready for the Metaverse

Due to the limitations of data, the MULTIVERSES within a Metaverse within normally can only get so precise, so as a result, Metaverses do not usually host a infinite amount of multiverses.

Metaverses are also too "artificial" to be natural, so as a result of this, they have their own unique methods of formation, which are typically executed by high level civilizations.

ARE YOU MISSING OUT ON THE METAVERSE

The term of a "Metaverse" was coined in Neal Stephenson's 1992 science fiction novel Snow Crash, where humans, as avatars, interact with each other and software agents, in a 3D space that uses the metaphor of the real world. Stephenson used the term to describe a virtual reality-based successor to the Internet. Concepts similar to the Metaverse have appeared under a variety of names in the cyberpunk genre of fiction as far back as 1981 in the novella True Names. Stephenson stated in the afterword to Snow Crash that after finishing the novel he learned about Habitat, an early MMORPG which resembled the Metaverse.

The structure of a Metaverse somewhat resembles the data structure of a hard drive but on a much larger scale. The metadata of a Metaverse is located in the central hexagon/heptagon of a Metaverse to minimize "jump distance" of signals.

Every heptagon in a metaverse has randomly arranged hexagons and heptagons in it that are the "files" of the Metaverse. These heptagons themselves have their own "files", and so on. The edges of each heptagon and hexagon in the Metaverse are also allocated for the metadata of said heptagons and hexagons.

Typically, the hexagons and heptagons are made of Electrium, an un-naturally conductive substance. This allows for the ease of transfer of signals with minimal data loss.

FROM CONVERSE TO METAVERSE

The Metaverse is a collective virtual shared space, created by the convergence of virtually enhanced physical reality and physically persistent virtual space, including the sum of all virtual worlds, augmented reality, and the internet. The word metaverse is a portmanteau of the prefix "meta" (meaning "beyond") and "universe" and is typically used to describe the concept of a future iteration of the internet, made up of persistent, shared, 3D virtual spaces linked into a perceived virtual Universe.

THINGS YOU MAY NOT KNOW: The Metaverse has 1 quadrillion multiverses but the diameter of the Metaverse is 1.4 x 10^1,500 light years!

THINGS YOU MAY WANT TO SAVE: Rocket fuel.  No need in the Metaverse. The world is your oyster, the metaverse is your hologram, your avatar, your augmented reality, your artificial intelligence, your virtual reality. your big boy gamers, your window to infinity and the only power hookup you need is your brain and creative energy.
