Is reality real? A perception overview...

A few questions you can ask yourself before deep-diving into the truths of reality...

One of the most common questions that philosophers ask is, do we perceive reality differently?

Is spacetime differently perceived by you and me?

Are we at the same time, seeing the same things?

This connects to the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle which says that if you know the momentum of a given particle, you can never know its place in space or even time.

We are all made of particles – is that the same for us?

How many realities are anyway – his, mine, hers, yours, theirs?

What if different perception where different dimensions?

We can never know any of these questions without speeding up time and warping spacetime...

The effects of new knowledge

I have selected three objects/entities that I will use as evidence to answer the following question (courtesy of the International Baccalaureate Organization for creating this question for the Theory of Knowledge class). Can new knowledge change established values or beliefs? - Object 1: Image of the cosmic microwave background radiation This is an image of the cosmic microwave background radiation (CMBR), the electromagnetic radiation which is remnant from the earliest stage of the universe; the image has also been my go-to computer background. The CMBR’s discovery in 1965 effectively confirmed the Big Bang theory of the universe’s origins, which is why it interests me as someone who passions cosmology. However, before its discovery, it was the established belief both in the realm of science as well as in religion that the universe had been in existence for eternity. The Big Bang theory simply was not compatible with the beliefs of the larger portion of religious sects; for...
