🔥Hot Take 🔥: That wild “parallel universe” in Antarctica headline? 🚀 Science says: slow your sleds, that’s not what was found! Particles acting weird in Antarctica aren’t proof of a backwards universe—let’s break it down!

🎯 Reality Check: Unfounded 🗑️
📝 Why: Fun sci-fi vibes, but the evidence just isn’t there. NASA never announced discovering a parallel universe. This claim traces back to sensational news headlines in 2020 after an experiment in Antarctica detected some high-energy particles behaving strangely. Scientists proposed lots of ideas—NOT that there’s a functioning parallel universe running backwards. Prof. Peter Gorham (correct name, not “Gorm”) from the University of Hawaii said: “There’s no parallel universe… It’s the most mundane explanation that fits the data that we believe.”
