ANTHROPIC PRINCIPLE

Post by geraldine »

hi.. anyone kind enough to explain to me the anthropic principle? basically what it exactly means and its history?

Is this principle applicable in present astrophysics or is it just a "stagnant" principle?

regards,
:) geraldine :)

These magazines are quite elusive. You can get Sky&Telescope and Astronomy at the following places :

Ikea ground floor newsagent shop
Kinokuniya
Borders
Sim Lim Square Newsagent
Popular Jurong East
Tower Records
