Consider the number of quantum perturbations in the early history of the universe. This
is an immense number, 10^10^10^7 by one estimatei. Each of these perturbations
represents an inflection point where the trajectory of the universe changed. Under the
multiverse theory, each resulted in alternate universes, and our particular universe is
merely one trajectory among the exceedingly many. Our existence is contingent on that
specific trajectory, but it is simply a random occurrence. Max Tegmark theorizes that
the entire multiverse contains infinite sets of universes.ii If this is the case, then any
specific trajectory within the infinite set has an effective probability of zero.
