In a dream, you can travel to parallel worlds
Scientists say that dreams sometimes act as portals to alternate realities, connecting a person to another version of themselves in a parallel world. Dreams have historically been viewed as mirrors that reflect our conscious waking life, filled with symbolic representations of our desires, fears, and experiences, they claimed in their research paper. Conversely, there is an interesting speculation that dreams may act as conduits to alternate dimensions or enhanced states of consciousness, suggesting a deeper and broader role for sleep than traditionally thought. This hypothesis was inspired by the “many worlds interpretation of quantum theory”, sometimes known as the multiverse theory.

Artificial intelligence showed the exact details of the connection of sperm and egg
AlphaFold AI, which predicts protein structures, identified three proteins that combine to work as coordinators between gametes. Without them, reproduction may come to a standstill in a wide variety of animals, from fish to mammals. Enrica Bianchi, a reproductive biologist at the University of Rome Tor Vergata, says the finding, published on October 17 in the journal Cell, supports the idea that only two proteins, one on the egg and one on the sperm, are needed to ensure sufficient fertilization. It is in contradiction. He, who was not involved in this study, says: This is not the same as the old concept and is more complicated.
