Our World May Be a Giant Hologram

In Germany, team members of an experiment called the GEO600 Project may have accidentally stumbled upon one of the most important physics discoveries in a long time.

The project is meant to detect gravitational waves from outer space; however, some of the data recently collected by GEO600 may point to us living in a giant cosmic hologram.

A hologram is defined as being a projection of a three-dimensional image into space from a laser beam. In the 1990s physicists Leonard Susskind and Gerard t’ Hooft theorized that our universe may be a giant hologram and that our everyday experiences are a projection originating from a two-dimensional plane. Prior to this, physicist David Bohm and neurophysiologist Karl Pribram worked together to develop the theory that the brain operates in a manner similar to a hologram, and that this hologram contains both matter and consciousness in a single field. The GEO600 findings seem to support and uphold the theory of the existence of a holographic universe and could radically change our scientists’ picture of space-time.

According to Michael Talbot, the late author of “The Holographic Universe,” such theories provide the explanation for mystical experiences such as lucid dreaming, ESP, telepathy, and out-of-body experiences.
