It's the concept that there may be many distinct universes. How these universes interact often differ depending on the precise theory you are talking about.

no, there is only one solar system.

oneguyinohio disagrees: Check out Nasa's website http://www.nasa.gov/worldbook/solarsystem_worldbook_update.html for their definition of solar system.
CaptainRich agrees: Balancer. That article mentions what "seem(s) to be solar systems in formation." Nothing conclusive yet.

That is a question that his pondered for many years. Some people wonder if there is an opposite universe where the people would chose to do the opposite of what ever your choice would be in this universe.

I personally don't feel that individuals are puppets like that. Our choices come from within each of us.

As for solar systems... any group of planets or objects that rotate around a star... such as earth around the sun makes up a solar system. There are many solar systems in a galaxy. Many galaxies can be found in a universe.

A universe is said to be all of existence. (FOUND ONLINE)The Universe is everything that physically exists: the entirety of space and time, all forms of matter, energy and momentum, and the physical laws and physical constants that govern them.

According to some speculations, this universe may be one of many disconnected universes, which are collectively denoted as the multiverse. In one theory, there is an infinite variety of universes, each with different values of the physical constants. In another theory, new universes are spawned with every quantum measurement. However, these speculations cannot be tested experimentally since, by definition, other universes cannot interact with our own.

Capuchin disagrees: There is only ONE solar system, our planetary system is THE solar system because our star is Sol.

If you do not accept my deffinition of solar system... please refer to NASA at the following website....

NASA - Solar System

Sol may be the name for our sun. The term may have been made up as a description of our planetary system of orbit about our sun, but as additional knowledge became available, the same terminology was applied to other systems.

Sol is the Latin name of the Sun, as well as the modern word for "Sun" in the Spanish, Portuguese, Catalan, Icelandic, Danish, Norwegian and Swedish
