Latham Boyle, a renowned theoretical physicist, dives deep into the Fermi Paradox and cosmic symmetries. He proposes an intriguing theory of a mirror universe that may hold answers to why we don't hear from extraterrestrial civilizations. The conversation explores quantum entanglement's role in potential alien communication, challenging our understanding of dark matter and the universe's beginnings. Boyle's insights suggest we may be missing signals from advanced civilizations simply because we’re not looking in the right way.

Episode notes
Universe's CPT Symmetry Insight
- The universe may be symmetric around the Big Bang according to CPT symmetry, challenging traditional views of the cosmos.
- This symmetry suggests a mirror universe concept that aligns with observed cosmic microwave background features.
Simplicity Near Big Bang
- Observations show the early universe grows simpler closer to the Big Bang, with symmetry and flatness.
- This simplicity hints the Big Bang acts like a mirror, reflecting quantum perturbations, explaining cosmic microwave background patterns.
Right-Handed Neutrinos as Dark Matter
- Right-handed neutrinos, invisible to standard forces, are natural candidates for dark matter.
- Mirror universe theory explains their production and predicts a specific dark matter mass measurable today.
