Some renowned scientists are currently arguing that reality is far from what we think it is. They suggest it depends on one's concept of time, whether there are other dimensions and/or universes etc. Scientific debates on reality have been going on for decades. Einstein commented that he chooses to believe that the moon is still there when he turns his back on it, even though others were suggesting that reality only exists when we are looking at, or interacting with it. There have been some famous experiments that confirm the latter can be correct at an atomic level, and nobody can explain why. But Einstein was pretty smart - I'm with him for the moment.
Some scientists are also proposing that we have no free will or ability to make choices. Life is scripted. What will happen tomorrow is inevitable and there is nothing we can do about it. Their reasons for proposing this are a little wierd IMO and require an acceptance of other yet to be proven theories.
While I admire the intellect of our most brilliant physicists, cosmologists, astronomers etc., I think some of them have rather adventurous imaginations driven by a want to go where no man (or woman) has gone before. The difference between science and science fiction today is a little fuzzy.
