• Resumen

  • The article discusses how universes with different physical laws might still be habitable. According to the authors, other universes, assuming they exist, may have emerged from the same vacuum that gave rise to the Earth's solar system and could contain intricate structures or life forms. Topics include how such findings suggest that the universe is not a finely tuned instrument for the emergence of life.
