New world creation in the DCU - JSA 37

[Captain Smith]

We went through whole song and dance to come up with 52. Now the JSA story line is creating a new time line that will be undone or whatever.

So is this a new world? How does the modern physics theory of alternates interact with DCU physics?

No quantum branching?

The MU just brances away without much trouble.

As we see in Booster Gold--assuming they go back and fix this--it's non-solidified time.

Or if they want a twist ending--this can be revealed to be another Earth.

haven't followed Booster Gold but that sounds a bit like HYPERTIME!

So I was thinking, if life started on Earth with the white entity, blah, blah - what's going on in the other universes that don't have Guardians and big bugs as fundamental entities?

Life started on Earth-0 I think, and then the multiverse was created based off the actions of those on Earth-0.

Also, the white light may exist elsewhere, but it may be in another form. You never know.

Hypertime=Quantum Mechanics many worlds type splitting.

Multiverse (the 52) seems to be more like different strings in a M-theory string model.

Both can act independently, so a given world in a multiverse that's a specific string can have multiple futures via Many Worlds theory.

Or at least that's assuming there is an actual attempt to be rigorous about this.

Sorta. Rip Hunter explained to Booster that there are certain things that can be changed when going back in time. These events are malleable like clay. The proper tweaking can yeild new and different results. But then there are those that cannot be changed, because no matter what, it was meant to happen. This is demonstrated when Booster attempts to stop the Joker from shooting Barbara Gordon. Everytime Booster charges in, it winds up going badly. Rip tells Booster that this is why Ted Kord cannot be saved.

If there's Nazis in charge, this could just easily be the new version of Earth-10.
