| This has also partially explained the previously completely mysterious fact that all copies of the Original Timeline, while usually identical to each other, are always different to the OTL in one important way - no known ATL contains the Entropic Time Machine. It is now widely believed that the ETM itself is an anomaly. | This has also partially explained the previously completely mysterious fact that all copies of the Original Timeline, while usually identical to each other, are always different to the OTL in one important way - no known ATL contains the Entropic Time Machine.

| + | The discovery of anomalies has spawned a whole new area of research focused on understanding why anomalies happen, what they are and if they can be replicated. The latter had already been an area of some interest due to there being no functioning ETMs in other timelines. Decades of investigations have revealed little insight, specifically because it is not possible to examine the past of the OTL in detail: any trip to the OTL's past simply spawns a separate timeline that has no record of an ETM ever existing. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Finding anomalies in other dimensions has allowed to get closer to them occurring and, thus, try to understand what is different in these cases. | ||
| + | |||
| + | The leading hypothesis is that it has something to do with insertions, since all anomalies have always happened in time frames following the arrival of a time traveler or a group of time travelers, although the time between arrivals and anomalies varies greatly from days to years. This begs the question if ETM is an anomaly that happened due to a traveler from another universe arriving to the OTL. No such individual has ever been found. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Another important hypothesis is that every ATL has an anomaly, it's just that in most ATLs it is undiscovered due to not happening to prominent people/places/events or due to it yet to happen in the far future. | ||
