Watch why the universe seems designed for life

The universe appears almost perfectly balanced for life to exist. Even tiny changes in the fundamental constants of physics could prevent stars from forming, eliminate water, or make complex chemistry ...
Shaped by a different biology or culture, other intelligent civilisations – if they’re out there – might understand the ...
We experience the flow of time because it’s a natural outcome of the basic laws of physics. But we may need to build a whole new model to account for gravity’s influence.
UC Santa Cruz physicist Stefano Profumo has put forward two imaginative but scientifically grounded theories that may help solve one of the biggest mysteries in physics: the origin of dark matter. In ...
