The Hubble Telescope has proved it isn't.

It depends on perspective. Wherever one is in the universe one appears to be at its centre.

Absence of Proof does not mean Proof of Absence

Yes, it is possible.

It's a matter of perspective since the universe does not have a center in reality.

Not from what we have observed.

Yes. In fact, the direct centre is that park near the courthouse in Kensington.

There’s two ways to look at this... either *everywhere* is the center of the universe, or *nowhere* is the center of the universe. In the first case, yup - we’re in the center. In the other case, we’re as much in the center as anywhere else.

It's possible but very unlikely. Just like the chance that some day your life could be meaningful to others.

Yes, because the Earth is the center of the universe.

The universe may not be a closed Euclidean space, so it may not have a center. If it does have a center, our galaxy might be near the center (by accident!) or not near the center.

not at all. Not even the center of the Local Group of three dozen or so galaxies. Less than 300 billion stars makes it a bit larger than average but far from largest. The really big ones run around a trillion stars. There is no center of the universe
