<p>We consider Einstein gravity with positive cosmological constant coupled to matter in an asymptotically de Sitter universe with sphere boundary at timelike infinity. In this setting we show that, to one-loop order and at late time, the norm of the no-boundary state vanishes, going as <InlineEquation ID="IEq1"> <EquationSource Format="MATHML"><math display="inline"> <msup> <mi>e</mi> <msub> <mi>S</mi> <mn>0</mn> </msub> </msup> <mfrac> <mrow> <mi>Z</mi> <msubsup> <mi>S</mi> <mn>0</mn> <mrow> <mo>−</mo> <mi>d</mi> <mfenced close=")" open="("> <mrow> <mi>d</mi> <mo>+</mo> <mn>1</mn> </mrow> </mfenced> <mo>/</mo> <mn>4</mn> </mrow> </msubsup> </mrow> <mrow> <mi>vol</mi> <mfenced close=")" open="("> <mrow> <mi>SO</mi> <mfenced close=")" open="(" separators=","> <mi>d</mi> <mn>1</mn> </mfenced> </mrow> </mfenced> </mrow> </mfrac> </math></EquationSource> <EquationSource Format="TEX">\( {e}^{S_0}\frac{Z{S}_0^{-d\left(d+1\right)/4}}{\textrm{vol}\left(\textrm{SO}\left(d,1\right)\right)} \)</EquationSource> </InlineEquation> with <i>S</i>₀ the tree-level entropy of the static patch, <i>d</i> the spacetime dimension, and <i>Z</i> non-negative. We show that the presence of an observer stabilizes the norm to a large, positive value.</p>
