Lets say we restarted the big bang, what are the chances that we would get different physical laws?
Or is this one of those unaswerable questions?

My guess is that, if there are other universes or other domains within our universe, the “whole thing” must be a statistical ensemble. If you would restart all again, you would not get exactly the same, but statistically the same.Gold Barz said:So you guys think that if there were other universes out there that it would follow the basic physical laws?

I agree Garth. But I did not claim that they exist. I was only considering the question whether there must exist common underlying physical laws to all multiverses in the hypotetical case that multiverses would exist, even in the case of that extreme Level IV.Garth said:Quote: "different universes"; show me one and I'll believe you.

Why whould our univese laws of physics be the only way that life can exist?Is it possible to have difffernt laws of physics and have life in it but in a differnt form.?WarrenPlatts said:According to string theory, there are many possible ways of constructing a universe. If it were actual humans doing the restart, they could construct a new universe with any arbitrary physical laws that they desired. Of course, the only truly interesting universe would be one like ours, with galaxies and life.
The Big Bang theory is the prevailing cosmological model for the early development of the universe. It states that the universe began as a hot, dense singularity and has been expanding and cooling ever since. The laws of physics, such as gravity and electromagnetism, are thought to have emerged during the early stages of the Big Bang and have been shaping the evolution of the universe ever since.
The Big Bang supports the idea of a finite number of physical laws because it suggests that the universe began with a single, highly ordered state. As the universe expanded and cooled, the laws of physics emerged and became more complex. This suggests that the laws of physics we observe today are a result of the conditions of the early universe and are not infinite in number.
While it is impossible to know for sure, it is highly unlikely that different physical laws would emerge if the Big Bang were to restart. The laws of physics are thought to be fundamental and unchanging, and any variations in the early universe would likely result in a vastly different universe than the one we observe today.
There are some scientific theories, such as the multiverse theory, that suggest the possibility of different physical laws in other universes. However, these theories are not yet supported by concrete evidence and remain highly debated among scientists.
Scientists study the possibility of different physical laws in the early universe through various methods, such as studying the cosmic microwave background radiation, conducting experiments in particle accelerators, and using mathematical models and simulations. However, due to the limitations of technology and our current understanding of the laws of physics, it is still a topic of ongoing research and speculation.
