Misconceptions Memes

Ever notice how journalists keep asking questions astronomers stopped asking centuries ago? The headline "Experts ask where the center of the universe is" has actual cosmologists facepalming so hard they're creating new black holes! 🤣 Since the Big Bang, the universe has been expanding in ALL directions simultaneously—like a cosmic soufflé that never stops rising! There's no center because EVERY point is expanding away from every other point. It's like asking "where's the center of the surface of a balloon?" while the balloon keeps inflating. Spoiler alert: it doesn't exist! Prof. Keating's "No, we aren't asking this..." is the scientific equivalent of banging your head against Einstein's desk. Next headline: "Scientists struggle to determine which way is up in space." *cosmic screaming intensifies*

The headline "Experts ask where the center of the universe is" has actual cosmologists facepalming so hard they've created their own gravitational waves. Modern cosmology established decades ago that the universe has no center—it's expanding everywhere equally like a cosmic sourdough that forgot to set a timer. The professor's "No, we aren't asking this..." response is basically the scientific equivalent of "I can't even." Journalists inventing problems that scientists solved in the 1920s is peak science communication failure. Next headline: "Experts wonder if the Earth might be flat after all?" *collective scientist screaming intensifies*
