The best of all possible worlds?

A fascinating insight into research that looks at the ‘fine tuning’ of the universe.

Investigators of fine tuning look, for example, at physical parameters ranging from the weight of a subatomic particle to the cosmological constant that regulates the expansion of the universe, and ask what everything would have been like if those numbers had been any different. In many of these counterfactual universes, slightly altered physical constants yield, when plugged into the mathematical machinery of physics, vastly different results. In many cases, the result is a universe in which no molecules — let alone stars or galaxies — could hold together.
