Physicists believe a mirror universe might exist where time moves backward, possibly happening before the Big Bang. This idea comes from CPT symmetry, which suggests the universe stays balanced if charge, direction, and time are flipped. To keep this balance, some scientists think our universe has an opposite version, where time flows in reverse. In...
