However‚ the fact that the universe has infinite complexity makes it beyond our abilities to make sense out of it; this is why we employ mapmaking to break things down to get us closer to the reality ‘out there’. Fundamentally‚ science is the process of mapmaking that utilizes what we can epitomize and think about to better represent and understand the world we live in. The idea of science can be
