      Bright? by Khaar2003-02-06 01:59:06
        Nah by evil_andy2003-02-06 02:16:49

                  Who wrote the fist book on physics then? by Khaar2003-02-06 02:59:20
                    Not necessarily. by wheresthefish2003-02-06 03:08:25
                      Yes, but this does not include a "yet". (n/t) by Khaar2003-02-06 03:10:13

                            Uh-huh. Riiight. by wheresthefish2003-02-06 03:36:42
                              The laws were different then beacuse... by GreyArea 2003-02-06 03:46:50
the conditions were different - if we could re-create the temperatures and atomic density of those few femto-seconds we could have different physical rules - as it is all we can do is speculate on those rules from the few remenants left over from that time. we can also see some of the things that existed at the time by using ultra high energy particle colliders etc. after the first couple of hundered secconds the laws of physiscs as we know them were probably born, because after that time the temperature and density of the universe beacme low enough that our laws would hold.

Remeber that all our "Laws" of physics are actually only best guesses and that most of our formulae to describe them are approximations - e.g. E=mC2 only holds if the mass you are talking about is moving at low speeds compared to C.
