if yes the scientific answers we have to a problem, could be a crap on another universe,

could we probably trust or science and drive a space shuttle designed to be practically working according to laws of our universe into another ?

Yes, mathematical models of parallel universes in other dimensions predict that the laws of physics there are very different from our own.

We can't get to those universes with a space shuttle, though - if in fact they exist at all.

Because another universe would have no relation to us it really couldn't exist.
If one did happen ,it would start the same as our universe.
A single space-time pulse would be the precursor.
The length of this initial pulse is what would make the universe.
If it was much shorter than ours the speed of light would be greater.
I guess this would work,the maximum size of the universe would be larger.
If the pulse was longer the speed of light would be less and the maximum size of the universe would be less.
I can't see any reason why it wouldn't work but if the deviation of the pulse length,longer or shorter was to much,a universe may never develop..
The laws that we experience would probably not be much different.

Our understanding of our universe is based on observation of certain principles which apply in every observable instance from sub-atomic particles to the movement of galaxies, including mental and spiritual phenomena.
It would seem unlikely other universes would operate under different universal laws, but that is only a guess.

Our mathematics and physics fall apart when looking back to the moment of the Big Bang. At time = 0, scientists must become philosophers. Not much is done on studying time < 0, simply because it does not have an effect in/on our dimensions.

My hypothesis is that it depends on the shape of the universe. I believe ours is a perfect sphere (Correct me if I'm wrong) and that's why gravity works equally from one direction as it would coming from the other. If instead you had a 'twisted' universe, the forces would be different in power from the right than if they had come from the left.

Some new cosmological String theories suppose that there could be 10^50 other universes, in what is sometimes called a manifold. These represent every possible combination and permutation of the laws of physics as we know them. In short, every possible universe is represented amongst these. All these universes were created in the same Big Bang that created ours. They are just different islands of possibility, separated from us by vast and unbridgeable gulfs.

Most of these universes are completely untenable as going concerns. Some just turn into gamma rays at the instant of creation, others are immediately sucked back. Most do not provide the necessary mild conditions necessary for the emergence of life. Ours does, and in that way it is a kind of Goldilocks Universe. Cosmologists have noted how odd it is that so many physical constants are so perfectly aligned and calibrated that it allows for life to emerge. The anthropic concept of ours being one of 10^50 possible universes (an unimaginably large figure far greater than the number of atoms in our own known universe!) is the answer to that problem.

Cosmological thinkers and writers like John Gribben and Paul Davies have ventured to suggest that a kind of evolutionary principle applies to universe formation in a way analogous to biological evolution. In some of these scenarios, universes which favour life become “fitter” than the ones that don’t, because humans (or whatever other intelligent and technological life might arise) actually go out into space and actively interfere with black holes, causing them to create new Big Bangs and thus new universes. This colossal explosion does not, thankfully, blow up the universe in which it occurs, because the explosion is INWARD, that is, the Big Bang creates space within itself and the matter that occupies that space. Standing outside the black hole, you might not even know that you had triggered the creation of uncountable universes within it. The daughter universes created like this are, just as in biological evolution, likely to RESEMBLE the parent universe more than it would a total stranger. But, again like ordinary evolution (or just plain old heredity) the child is not identical to the mother/father.

This is how it might work in our own galaxy. Billions of years from now, humans are everywhere in the galaxy, and almost god-like in their powers. (Consider that it is just on a hundred years since the Wright Brothers made their first flight and extrapolate that as to where we might be in a billion years) Future humans have learnt to control even the laws of physics. Most suns have died by then, and most usable sources of energy are to found in the rotational force of black holes. Humans have learnt to initiate the Big Bang process within such black holes, which are like the wombs of potential new universes. The new universes created by these projects are more likely to be like our own, and therefore they too are likely to be fertile grounds for life, maybe more fertile and even better places to live than here. So, universes which are conducive to life get an advantage over ones which don’t, because lifeless universes cannot make this step. Of course, if humans can initiate big bangs and created new universes, that makes them very close to having attained Godhood themselves. Perhaps that is the eventual destiny of humanity – to become Godlike. So then, instead of having God as the beginner of everything, He ends up as the culmination of everything we have done.

In these scenarios, the idea of the Big Bang as beginning EVERYTHING is dismantled. It would be more like reality is an endless sea in which innumerable bubbles are constantly being created, giving rise to other bubbles in endless generation. In a way, this reinstates an earlier theory of the universe that was a rival to the Big Bang theory, and was in fact more favoured in the first half of the 20th Century. That was Fred Hoyle’s Steady State Theory, in which there was no single moment of creation, but the universe was continually evolving thru the creation of small pieces of matter in interstellar space. The Universe, in Hoyle’ view was infinitely old and would last forever. This turned out to be wrong for OUR local corner of the universe, but it could well be correct for the manifold universe as a whole.

Finally, it is amazing to think that the upshot of such hypotheses is that Consciousness is a vital part of the physical constitution of the universe itself, as fundamental as the four forces themselves (Gravity, Electro-Magnetism, the Weak and the Strong Forces themselves). We are not an accidental by-product of the Big Bang. We have a right to be here, and our role is not that of an onlooker but one of the main players. In this way, different universes would indeed have different physical laws, possibilities and destinies. But all this would be guided, manipulated and transformed by our distant descendants, acting as Gods who we might not even be able to recognise.
