The Laws Of Physics May Be Changing
from the it's-time-to-break-the-laws-of-physics! dept
Remember all those physics classes you took? Me neither. But, it might not matter that much any more because the laws of physics may change over time. Actually, I wouldn’t get too excited yet. A new study, however, suggests that there may be some minor modifications to laws of physics over time. Obviously this brings up a whole lot of questions, and would require a ton more research before anything could be confirmed. However, it is a nice idea to think that the “laws of physics” might not be so stringent.

Why is this news?
There is considerable (though often poo-pooed and hushed up) evidence that the speed of light is changing and that some other “constants” are not that constant. This has been around for years, so it is pretty obvious that if the constants change that the laws will change!
