• The Physics of a Populated Universe.
In the universe we know, physical laws eventually reach the point of tautology: They are a certain way, simply because they are that way. Gravity is calculated through this coefficient. Matter is scattered about in that abundance. The universe expanded by x. We assume that that is the only way it could be, but that's not necessarily true. There could be any number of physical laws in place instead of the ones we know, some of them possibly even more probable than the ones we know. But if other laws existed, we as humans may not. Because of that, we must consider why the laws of physics are the way they are, and what other strange or lifeless universes there might be, or might have been.
