That white box seems waaaay too big to me.
I thought so too, but its log scale, so who knows.
Also remember that the longest distance you’ve ever traveled is an unknown quantity but guaranteed to be huge, since the earth itself is careening through space
Maybe it counts what we’ve explored via telescopes? Like, JWST can look far back at specific things and all-sky surveys only look so far.
The logiest of scales
With only two numbers written down we technically don’t know whether it’s linear or log
Couldn’t one figure it out based on the box being signed slightly to the left of and above center?
I mean yeah, with prior knowledge of/ intuition for the data. Which in general shouldn’t be presumed when presenting a graph. But I’m being nit picky
That’s not being nit picky at all in my opinion. The chart is objectively terrible. I’d be Reviewer Number 2 on this one.
If its linear the Human Experience is located around -5*10^22s - -3*10^22s and 3*10^25m - 6*10^25m (whatever that would even be supposed to mean).
Doesnt seem right to me. But yes, technically youre right
But don’t we all want to experience 10^26 m?
JWST has some pictures of it
Some are looking at 10^-15 for the answers too
I was expecting something a little more circular, tbh.
So a box means that the duration of time doesn’t affect the lengths we can perceive, and the sizes don’t affect the duration of time we can observe something.
A circle would imply that the amount of time we perceive something affects the scales we can perceive, and most weirdly of all, vice-versa.
The circle sounds like a really interesting—if mind-bending—science fiction book. If it was written well enough I’d give it a shot, even if I can’t intuit what’s going on.
Like the dot of the i of Jeremy Bearimy?
I was thinking maybe donut-shaped
B-b-but, surely things so small or far away could never impact us!? (/s :-P)
i’ll take this over the universe cone thing
