This chapter briefly discusses two recent, apparently visually tractable anomalies that challenge the Copernican principle whereby our location in the universe is not special. The radial grouping of galaxy clusters (and alleged distortion of the redshifts due to expansion), the “fingers of god,” indirectly challenges the orthodox interpretation of the CMB. A more recent anomaly, the “axis of evil,” points to the visually observable “conspiring” of interchanging hot and cold regions in the CMB to form an axis of anisotropy. The chapter discusses various responses and notes the epistemic standing of the challenges in comparison to the worked-out alternatives to the orthodox explanation of the CMB.
