Cosmos2

White section is the observable part. Black section is the part from which no information reaches the white part. Cosmologists assume that their measurements in the observable section are true also in the unknown part. In other words, cosmologists claim that they can tell what is in the black region by reading what is in the white region. This assumption makes speculations such as expansion of the universe possible.

 

This image provides experimental evidence that observations made in the knowable part do not give information about the unknown part.

 

The question is: Can you complete correctly the digits of the sequence of the number visible on the knowable universe. This is impossible to do. But cosmologists claim that by looking at this number they can tell us the correct sequence of numbers in the black region as well.

 

What do you think?
