Under the new concept of scientists, space is a computer, and everything that happens in it, can be described in terms of information processing. In the traditional view of the world consists of particles, interconnected by certain powers; and according to the quantum theory it is only a set of fields that we can properly be described only by the apparatus of quantum physics.


And here appears the computer, of course, as a concept, not a box, standing on the table. "Quantum physics formulated in almost the same terms, and information processing, " says Vlatko Vedral from Oxford University. It suggests that science can be the basis of all".

Information occupies a special place in the quantum theory. Famous uncertainty principle dates back to information. Virtually every process in the universe can be reduced to the interaction between particles, giving the binary result. In other words, nature is at its lowest level based on the movement of bits (binary digits)as the computer.

According to ed Fredkin from mit, if we analyze the process from the inside, we will see that the universe is subject to the same law, the unified information rule, which is enough to build the whole cosmos. Vedral with colleagues believe that everything is more complicated: as we bring the entire universe to entities under the laws of quantum physics, space must be an analogue of the quantum computer, not a classic, to which we have become accustomed.

The source of this unusual ideas - disputes about black holes. One of the fundamental principles of physics States that information cannot be destroyed. However, black holes swallow matter containing information. What happens with this information - this question was the subject of a long discussion between Stephen Chauchina and several of his associates. As a result Hawkin agreed that the information is stored on the borders of the black hole and is released after the disappearance. Based on this theoretical physics Leonard Susskind and Gerard't Hooft suggested that the universe also can store the information on its borders; from which it follows that our reality can be a projection of this information with boundaries in space. If this hypothesis is correct, the reality is similar to the picture Princess Leia created by R2D2 robot in the film ' Star wars", a hologram.
