Two amazing days


Yesterday, there was a public symposium in McGill. David Gross , Leonard Susskind, Paul Davies and George Efstatiou had been invited to debate the question "Is the universe just right for life?", addressing the newly revived interest in Anthropic discussions in string theory. I guess there is no need to introduce these renowned physicists. Besides this panel discussion, each of these panelists presented a talk. Talking from Planck satellite, CMB experimental results, dark energy to cosmological constant problem, string theory landscape, multiuniverses and quantum equivalence principle!.
I just want to say it was amaaaaaaaaazing!...
