A speculative physical hypothesis proposing that the universe’
s fundamental parameters – physical constants, laws, and
even dimensions – are not fixed but can be altered under certain extreme conditions. Unlike multiverse theories (which posit many static universes), malleable universe theory suggests that a
single universe can reconfigure itself, perhaps through advanced technology, cosmic‑scale events, or unknown
meta‑laws. It opens the
door to “rewriting physics” from within, and is often explored in science fiction as a solution to the fine‑tuning problem or as a pathway to ultimate cosmic engineering.
Malleable
Universe Theory Example: “The novel’s ancient
aliens didn’t travel between universes – they reshaped their own, using the malleable
universe theory to tweak gravity and save their dying star.”
