Supervoids vs Colliding Universes!

Could the mysterious Cold Spot found in the CMB be the result of a collision with a bubble universe? Try 23andMe at ____________________________________________________ [CORRECTION: The calculated ISW cooling from cold spot observed voids is 0.000032 Kelvin not 0.032 K as is listed on screen, the actual cold spot temperature differential is 0.000150 Kelvin not 0.15 K, and the actual ISW cooling from the control region is 0.000014 Kelvin not 0.014 K. The actual control region temperature differential is 0.000015 Kelvin not 0.015K.

Previous Episode: The Fate of the First Stars Space Time Journal Club examines Evidence Against a Supervoid Causing the CMB Cold Spot If you study a map of the Cosmic Microwave Background, or CMB, you may notice a large, deep blue splotch on the lower right. This area, creatively named the Cold Spot. Is this feature a statistical fluke, the signature of vast supervoids, or even the imprint of another universe?
