Laws of Physics Vary Throughout the Universe

earthshattering discoveries indeed happen everyday

i mean one would assume that the laws of physics would be universal, there's a conflict in my brain now >_<

All the 'laws' mean is that if we do an experiment today, and come back tomorrow and do it again, the results will be exactly the same.

If you think about it, there's no reason that has to be true. It's just that up until now (potentially) we've assumed that it is.

yeah but isn't everything in the universe made up of the same particles? == same laws...etc, where would the difference come from?

I guess that was the biggest assumption being made from the start, that everything was made from the same stuff... curiosity level up!

Actually, if I'm correct the most likely given explination at current would be that they are the same particles, but that different universes overlap with our own that we can't see or detect but effect our universe in many ways.

If correct it could "shrink" the cage so to speak... though expand the universe.  Not that'd matter since alpha would be either too small or two large to be of any use to us outside of the "sweet spot" we're in.
