Cosmos – Great Deceiver

The picture of the starry sky does not at all reflect the real structure of our Universe. When you begin to investigate how the Universe is actually arranged, there arises a strong impression that you are watching the performance of a magician-illusionist in a circus. At every step you come across paradoxes, so every time you want to exclaim: “This cannot be!” What we can see in the sky is an illusion, and the real structure of the Universe carefully hides from us.
