Well, we are at the center of the observable universe.
- nojvek 9y agoWe are at the center of “our” observable universe. But ... since we don’t still know the bounds of universe, technically we don’t exactly know where our absolute position in the universe really is.
- moopling 9y agoI was under the impression us doesn't make sense to consider the idea of absolute position in space.
- aeorgnoieang 9y agoI don't think that's completely true. Details of the cosmic microwave background might indicate that we're at the center of the universe: - [Axis of evil (cosmology) - Wikiwand](https://www.wikiwand.com/en/Axis_of_evil_(cosmology) https://www.wikiwand.com/en/Axis_of_evil_(cosmology)) And besides the above, the CMB itself provides a 'natural absolute frame of reference' as it's the remnants of the very early universe.
