Cosmos:elementary | WAS THE UNIVERSE CREATED FOR US? Fine-tuning problem @Cosmos_elementary | Uploaded February 2023 | Updated October 2024, 8 hours ago.
The universe seems to be fine-tuned for the existence of life. If some of the parameters that describe the universe were to change even slightly there would be no stars, planets and humans. Does this problem really exist and what are the solutions?
