Edwin Powell Hubble Quote: Why a Privileged Place in the Universe is Unlikely
“Such a condition would imply that we occupy a unique position in the universe, analogous, in a sense, to the ancient conception of a central earth. The hypothesis cannot be disproved but it is unwelcome and would be accepted only as a last resort in order to save the phenomena. […] But the unwelcome supposition of a favoured location must be avoided at all costs.”
