The laws of physics are just man made constraints

You think that we could just unmake them the same?

Lol.

 

[noseall]

Who thought them up then?

They simply exist. You mean who discovered them?

Your outlook on everything is negative, even down to the laws of physics.

The 'laws of physics', are decided to match what we observe, to explain how we think, and believe things work - only until we find something which doesn't quite fit, then we change the laws to suit.

Yes but with Noseall he just closes his eyes to everything regardless.

Any good that film? (Hail Mary) Might have a watch tomorrow

I watched it last week. It's very good, although my Mrs hyped it up too much before hand (she'd already read the book) and I was expecting it to be spectacular.

I think you are explaining TV.
You could not be further from the truth regards physics.

I respect physics correct.

Surely we (scientists not me ) are just reverse engineering whats there? How do we know we have it right.

As probably one of the leading scientists on here in astro physics, the answer is, we don't know..
Think on !!!! [TM]

In technical terms we don't know. We just get very confident that the way we're describing the universe is accurate.

Gravity, just a theory. Quantum Physics, just a load of theories, the big bang just a theory. Laws of physics, just theories.

All supported by huge amounts of experimental and theoretical evidence, but still theories.

We observe, we experiment, we decide what theory fits, we test the theory, and if it works - we accept it.

How do we know we have it right.

We don't, often we get it wrong. History is littered with theories, which were later proven to be wrong.
