Universal constants changing into new ones?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the concept of physical constants changing from pre-big bang to post-big bang, questioning how constants can transform into new ones. It raises concerns about the implications of such changes, suggesting that if constants can vary, they may not be true constants, leading to chaotic laws rather than stable governing principles. The lack of information about the pre-big bang era complicates the assertion that a change in physical constants was necessary. Participants are encouraged to review existing speculative theories and guidelines, as the topic may require extensive speculation that could violate forum rules. The conversation highlights the challenges in reconciling theoretical physics with established laws of the universe.

Just a quick question: the transition between pre-big bang to post big bang (if it occured) required a change in physical constants (our universe is ever-expanding while the preBB universe was not). How can these constants change themsevels into new constants like that? This would seem to require laws which are defined by "constants" that could change into new constants. Meaning that they weren't constants in the first place, and thus the laws were variables/chaotic laws incapable of governing any sort of meaningful process. This is contradictory to our universe which IS governed by established laws and universal contsants.

Is there any physics explanation for this?

Since we have no information about "pre-big bang", how are you able to know that it "required a change in physical constants"? How do you KNOW that such physical constants even existed?

I would strongly recommend you review the https://www.physicsforums.com/showthread.php?t=5374" that you had agreed to. Play particular attention on speculative theory. Since your post/question will require A LOT of such speculative answers, this thread simply cannot be addressed without violating our Guidelines.

I think it's easist first to watch a short vidio clip I find these videos very relaxing to watch .. I got to thinking is this being done in the most efficient way? The sand has to be suspended in the water to move it to the outlet ... The faster the water , the more turbulance and the sand stays suspended, so it seems to me the rule of thumb is the hose be aimed towards the outlet at all times .. Many times the workers hit the sand directly which will greatly reduce the water...
