This is what the human eye looks like through a microscope, from the perspective of a germ on a microscope slide.

Is the radial scale logarithmic? Or is it even more compressed than that?

First thing I will point out is there is no known shape of the universe.

obviously the eye of our universe is flat

as arnold would say, "stop whining!"

you can just learn science and not resort to clickbait titles like "i hate this waaah!"

BE NOT AFRAID...🙄

Well, it's showing the moon lit up while it's behind the earth, so clearly it should all be dark due to the eclipse. So I can only conclude that it's trying to get the word out that we actually live in a binary solar system.

Do you mean woo-woo shit or conspiracy shit? Or both?

Serious question: Do we know how far removed from the exact center of the Big Bang we are? Is that something that can be deduced?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 month ago

"the exact center of the Big Bang" is not a phrase that makes sense.

This is what the world looks like when you step outside

Proof that the universe is an egg. Armageddon will come when the Christian God's sperm comes to fertilize us and we'll be reborn into Heaven unless climate change aborts us as a foetus

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 month ago

Is that where the sperm swims to?

Fractals all the way down.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

Well, clearly everything gets smaller as you go out.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

FAKE!

Even children know that the sun isn't the center of the universe - it's Earth. Duh!

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I mean, isn't it obvious? Christianity has traditionally believed that Earth is the center of the Universe. Everything in the Universe is moving away from us, as if we are sitting at the very spot where "Let There Be Light" resulted in light being let. Physics has proven that we are at the literal single unique geometric center of the Universe. /s
