What is reality? Reality is an agreed upon collection of concepts by a human
collective about life on one particular planet based on current
understandings. It has changed many times in our history. Certain figures
like Galileo, Einstein, Newton and others changed it.


None of them changed reality.
They explained part of reality, letting people see some things
more clearly and accurately.



According to some popular theories reality can't be changed.
Relativity for example views "spacetime" as a multidimensional object
that is frozen. It doesnt change. When you look at a graph showing
the position over time of a marble in a u-shaped track does the graph
change? No. Spacetime is like that, suggests relativity.
If that is true then the memories you think you have of what happened
yesterday are total illusion. There is no "you" in +1 sec or -1 sec.
Oh well. Maybe there's something wrong with the theory.
Scientists admit they only predicted the existence of 3% of what
now seems to form the universe.
It's not good manners to based any claims on only vaguely understanding
3% of the dataset.




There's no way that 3% is credible. It implies they have some idea of
what 100% knowledge is.

Another vast hole in your knowledge of how they measure or even
what is being talked about then.

A wise man realizes the older he gets the less he knows. I'm not
surprised you think you know it all.
