Yeah, not to mention that the whole thread title is very click-bait-y. "We might need to update our understanding of what the laws of physics are" just doesn't have the same ring to it, and plus it kinda goes without saying.
The Laws of Physics can change? Really!

That's the scientific method for you.
You may have taken my post seriously, if so...
It depends what your post is made out of.
Yes, that was more or less the point.
"Ye canna change the laws o' physics!"
Physics is still very young in the classrooms of modern times. To say that physics knows everything about the Universe because physicists use equipment to take readings from thousands of light years away is simply not even wrong.
Just recently NASA discovered that there is more density on the outside of the solar system compared to being inside of the solar system.

Yes, but fewer than one particle per cubic centimetre is hardly very dense and about an order of magnitude less dense than is the solar wind near the Earth (about 10 per cc). The best vacuum we can achieve artificially is about a thousand particles per cc. (By particles, I'm conflating ions, lone electrons, and neutral atoms. The particles in the solar wind are mostly ions and lone electrons.)
Also, welcome to the scientific method, which allows long-established ideas to be superseded.
