See also
Barnes, L., 2012, The Fine-Tuning of the Universe for Intelligent Life, 77 pages
for discussion of
the fine-tuned universe.
To an arguable extent the
observable universe has been
fine-tuned for life as we know it, but
NOT over-fined-tuned as Martin Rees (1942--)
and others have pointed out.
Over-fine-tuning would falsify
the multiverse.
So the multiverse has passed one
significant falsification test.
How many falsification tests
does a theory have to pass to be deemed
a scientific theory?
