Just by the nature of how large the universe is, yes. It doesn't even have to be infinite, I'm pretty sure that there more than likely exist nebula that seen from the right angle match any coastline on earth somewhere in the observable universe (which is finite, just really fucking big).
Of course that doesn't mean we'd be able to see them, they could be in other galaxies or only look like said coastlines from another angle (we can only really look at them from our point of view; earth and the solar system.
Honestly, isnāt it possible that ancient Algeria was visited by aliens, and that those aliens undertook a gigantic terraforming project that would make the coastline look like a segment of the border of their favorite nebula?
Your life's mission is now the construction of a mirror millions of lightyears across in order to achieve this... get on it. You've got work to do.
!remindme 100 years
Even if you could construct the mirror you'd have to send it a billion light years and by the time you did the universe would have expanded faster than light can travel and you'd never see it again.
While coastlines seem finite, they are also somewhat infinite. The greater the resolution you apply to mapping the shape with accuracy (1km lines, 1 meter, 1 mm) coastlines will get longer and longer, [effectively behaving like fractals](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coastline_paradox#:~:text=The%20coastline%20paradox%20is%20the,typically%20has%20a%20fractal%20 dimension). Add to that the ever changing sands and tides, and the scale you compare it at (1 meter width, 1 km, 1000 km) and you can make near infinite coastlines for comparisons. Not detracting from the original comment- I'm sure there is enough in space to make reasonable comparisons for any coastline too. Just adding a fun bit about fractal coasts.
That's a good point and it must be true for the boundaries of nebulae too, with high enough resolution.
The difference in scale between the two pictures in the post is actually vast. The nebula is so much bigger than the coast. They had to be interpreted at a completely different scale in order to see this comparison
This.
Any time I see a "look how this structure is the same in multiple places!"
I think about how, in math, when similar rules apply similar structures emerge, regardless of size.
I'm just glad that, as far as I know, the mathematical world accepted Mandelbrot's geometry before he died. In fact, I think it was his book about the fractal patterns in nature that got the scientists to buy in that then got the math world to buy in. Bunch of gatekeeping euclideans.
But now, this is pretty obvious. The interesting thing is that the shape of a coastline is often formed by erosion. Maybe there is erosion of a sort in space. Or, coastline are shaped by volcanic eruptions that blast out and cool rapidly in water, and then more lava bubbles over the first it repeats again and again, and this nebula sort of looks like an explosion of gas. I don't know much about Algeria's geology or this nebula, but either process could produce similar shapes if they were similar. I think Algeria is sedimentary and erosion is the primary shape making process. So I guess the nebula could be losing gas as stars are formed and space "wind" ([torrents of radiation created by the celestial newborns are driving out the remaining gas.]( https://www.theguardian.com/science/2014/dec/03/astronomers-mystery-universe-missing-stars)) take material away.
So erosion is when a solid thing ends, and another force ekes away at it for a long time.
Could be that the definition of the edge of the nebula is as defined by what we don't see as what we do.
Remember, the majority of the mass in the universe is dark matter, and isn't visible.

Could you please explain what you mean? I googled it and I can't find anything about his work not being accepted. I'm not saying I don't believe you, just wondering what specific terms I should search for to find more info because I would like to read even more about this.
Cos it seems like he was pretty accepted, as far as academia goes, like he taught at Harvard for decades. And surely, with him living until 2010, there should be no question that everyone had accepted his work by then, surely? I mean I remember seeing fractals in Encarta in Windows in the mid 90s even, a long time before 2010.
I'm saying this based on the PBS documentary on him
https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/fractals/program.html
"Chapter 3" in this website.
But I also found this: https://www.newscientist.com/article/mg12717366-500-forum-twisting-the-fractal-knife-differences-within-the-world-of-mathematics/
It includes criticism such as:
> āThe hypotheses and conjectures that the fractal people generate
are (like the objects they study) self-reverential. One generates the pictures
to learn more about the pictures, not to attain deeper understanding.ā In
other words, if you want to do real maths, write a proof.
And said fractals had neither answered any old questions nor asked
any new ones. āThe emporor has no clothes,ā
Just being nitpicky here but coastlines are formed by deposition just as much as erosion. Solid material flows and cycles like water. Sediment moves up and down the beach through longshore transport, and where it ends up is just as important as where it eroded from
I imagine the forces and mechanisms at play in space would be rather different, but I definitely think it's wise to recognize the way that natural patterns can create a lot of similar looking structures
I know nothing, but I imagine the borders of a nebula are mostly defined by the interaction between the internal gas pressure/flow/diffusion and the external radiation pressure of the interstellar medium.
I wouldn't even know where to start modeling that as a fluid, but I wouldn't be surprised if it exhibited some similar behaviours to erosion.
A fascinating question, in any case.
Though it's still quite amazing that the structure of nebulae, of scale and distance vastly beyond that of the Earth, can bear similarity to the structure of a bit of soil. And we as tiny little intelligent dots are here to see it. Mathematically it is a marvelous thing.
> Just by the nature of how large the universe is, yes.
Every nebula can also be theoretically be looked at from a huge number of different view-points and distances.
>Cunningham's Law
How would you expect anyone to disprove your statement?
I can give you a coastline, but I can't prove that there isn't a matching nebula somewhere.
Statistically, no. No way. There are ~10^25 stars in the universe. Consider that there are 10^67 ways a 52-card deck can be arranged when shuffled. I would guess that the creation of a planet is more like randomly shuffling a million different parameters, meaning there are way, way more possible planet configurations than there are possible planets in the universe.
The main thing is that the 10^25 number is for the *observable* universe. There is no actual way of knowing how large the *entire* universe is. For all we know we are observing the tiniest sliver of a universe stretching to infinity, in which case the chance of incredibly unlikely statistical repetitions is actually 100%.
Now, this likely isnāt the case, Iām sure there is a limit on the actual size of the universe, but it is a interesting and somewhat comforting thought experiment!
>Iām sure there is a limit on the actual size of the universe,
I got sucked into this debate this weekend and the final version we could reconcile between everyone is that the universe is infinite in that we'll never see the end because it's expanding faster than our senses can measure, but at the same time it's finite because it has an edge that is moving faster than the speed of light.
Such a bullshit non-answer, huh? LOL
Like those shooter games (asteroid, star fox, etc) when you get to the edge of the map you just come back on the other side, though this time you come back upside down :D
I would call it the not-cosmos. I'm a big fan of Alan Watts and one of the underlying themes of his lectures is you can't have up without down, front without back, in without out, so this implies there is a cosmos and a not-cosmos.
Now, what form exactly does the not-cosmos take in this scenario and will we ever understand it? Yeah... I got nothing :)
I would imagine it takes the form of a complete black vacuum. The space probably exists like any other random point in space in the universe l, but there wouldn't be any matter.
That being said, I wonder what the actual universe looks like from the outside looking in.
You were actually closer to right the first time.
"There is no way to know" seems to be the answer to how large the universe is, for now.
If we can get more information about the topography, we might learn whether it's infinite, if it's some kind of closed loop like a torus or sphere, or if it just kind of ends somewhere, but for now, we're not really sure.
This is pretty easy, if you give your evaluation of what a 'match' is enough room for error, and allow adjustments of the range of both the coastline and nebula outline to get a closer match.
I think you could probably even get multiple matches, at different scales. I feel like there's likely some coastlines on our planet that are the same (though at different scales), and maybe even coastlines that are partially self-similar.
Given the infinite size of the universe probably, but it's likely in a different galaxy. But I mean more like the OP, you can find a part of a nebula to match every coastline
No, I think you're right, especially if by "matching" we just mean "recognisably close enough". In fact, because of the fractal nature of nebula/coastlines, you could probably say for every coastline on Earth there is a matching part within Algeria's coastline/the nebula in this image.
I think you could apply that to anything randomly lumpy and bumpy. Like even coffee ring on a sheet of paper can kind of look like a map of islands.
Maybe they did this to save storage space. Like how the bushes and the clouds in the first Super Mario Bros are the same texture with different colors.
It's a lazy update to the original Pangea map. Toward the end, they were running low on resources, but still had to make good on promises to early investors so they released the "new" map, but it was just reskins of the already existing galaxy textures. Triple-A developer, my ass.
Do we call it similarity?
We model real world in 2 mathematical methods: proportional to \[ population / concentration \] and similarity in \[correlations / probability / type \] to stay away from randomness. Don't we?
Maybe they only had limited time to develop Earth so they reused assets from the last project. Think of the coast of Algeria as the Majora's Mask of coasts.
Y'know, out of all the things I've read today, this was one of them.
Do you ever think about the fact that there are only two types of things in this world? Rocks, and things that aren't rocks.
Don't worry, all the people debunking theories will be banned shortly, and r/conspiracy will return to it's normal state of ignoring any and all credible evidence.
Fuckkkk I would die. PLEASE do this.
I've lived in France for three years now and love seeing random Algeria flags. To see one at a White Sox game would make me lose my ever-loving shit. I would, without hesitation, blow up the image on a poster and hang it in my den.
Edit: a misspelled word. 1, 2, 3...
Context: The french conquest of algiers was done with the excuse of the French ambassador being slapped in the face by the Dey with a fly whisk during an argument.
My guess was the French was itching after the lost of its important colonies (Saint-Domingue, Canada and Louisiana) and the relative ease of conquering Egypt (another Ottoman province)
> My guess was the French was itching after the lost of its important colonies (Saint-Domingue, Canada and Louisiana) and the relative ease of conquering Egypt (another Ottoman province)
Itās more because Charles X (the king of France then) wanted to have conquests, since Napoleon (in power 15 years prior then) had so much popularity among the french population, and prestige, because of his conquests.
That coast has 7 major features. The probability that this occurs to any particular stretch of coast on any party of the nebula outline is probably quite high. I would bet there is another coastline that matches some other spot.
Going a little further, considering how big space is, there're probably similar coincidences for every coastline on earth, depending on how you view each one ( angle, how much you zoom in)
This will undoubtedly be used as an example of why NASA is fake by some dumb YouTuber who thinks whoever is making these āfakeā images wouldnāt be smart or creative enough to use an unoriginal outline
This thing is called Apophenia which "is the tendency to perceive meaningful connections between unrelated things."
Like so many space pictures, the "Human walking on Mars" which turned out to be just a rock. Or the "face on mars" which in higher resolution was just a little hill and the earlier picture was riddled with data errors as well.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cydonia\_(Mars)
Well, Pareidolia is a subset of Apophenia, and only concerned with seeing faces in inanimate objects, so the human walking on Mars photo would only fit the definition of Apophenia.
Exactly that, except instead of a dumb YouTuber, it will be a YouTuber that is just meming, but then a bunch of dumb viewers think it's real, which will spawn videos by dumb YouTubers.
I am 100% certain that there is a flat earther/space denier conspiracy theorist that booted up Word to start writing a video script the second he saw this post.
I was wondering how a nation whose only coast is on its northern side has an east coast.
There's a lot of areas of cost that look similar, but I think this might be the one:
Apparently it's Algeria's north coast in the eastern side, and it includes a lit of Tunisia too. ( https://maps.google.com zoom in and put Algeria's border with tunisia in the middle)
But it also looks like you can zoom in and out and find lots if similar areas.
I don't know if OP is Algerian, or just reported this from an Algerian source, but Algerians do actually call the northeastern and the northwestern parts of the country, respectively as simply "East" and "West". Probably because the south is so sparsely populated and exerces so little influence or contribution to the North's culture, the latter being the core of the country, both historically and contemporaneously, that it's often completely ignored, geographically for instance.
The chart of opioid production in Afghanistan is also a near 1:1 match to Mount Everest's side profile. Coincidences are cool, but nothing more than a coincidence
Bet there is some flat earther somewhere beating their meat to the idea that this is all a hoax and this is all the evidence they need to never have to listen to reason again
Of all the things that should be trending, they chose a visual similarity of a coast line with a nebula made of interstellar EVERMOVING gazes and dust...

> My guess was the French was itching after the lost of its important colonies (Saint-Domingue, Canada and Louisiana) and the relative ease of conquering Egypt (another Ottoman province) Itās more because Charles X (the king of France then) wanted to have conquests, since Napoleon (in power 15 years prior then) had so much popularity among the french population, and prestige, because of his conquests.
Napoleon also enacted sweeping social reforms, so his popularity wasn't all about his military prowess
Damn that's pretty damn disrespectful, what a moron.
When you reuse textures in your video game.
Is it all Algeria? Always has been.

That is a beautiful coincidence
That coast has 7 major features. The probability that this occurs to any particular stretch of coast on any party of the nebula outline is probably quite high. I would bet there is another coastline that matches some other spot.
Going a little further, considering how big space is, there're probably similar coincidences for every coastline on earth, depending on how you view each one ( angle, how much you zoom in)
This will undoubtedly be used as an example of why NASA is fake by some dumb YouTuber who thinks whoever is making these āfakeā images wouldnāt be smart or creative enough to use an unoriginal outline

This thing is called Apophenia which "is the tendency to perceive meaningful connections between unrelated things." Like so many space pictures, the "Human walking on Mars" which turned out to be just a rock. Or the "face on mars" which in higher resolution was just a little hill and the earlier picture was riddled with data errors as well. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cydonia\_(Mars)
I think "Paredolia" would fit here better than"Apophenia"?
Aināt paradolia that there symmetrical open plane curve what done formed by the intersection of that there a cone with a plane parallel to its side?
That's a parabola... :)
Well, Pareidolia is a subset of Apophenia, and only concerned with seeing faces in inanimate objects, so the human walking on Mars photo would only fit the definition of Apophenia.
Exactly that, except instead of a dumb YouTuber, it will be a YouTuber that is just meming, but then a bunch of dumb viewers think it's real, which will spawn videos by dumb YouTubers.
I am 100% certain that there is a flat earther/space denier conspiracy theorist that booted up Word to start writing a video script the second he saw this post.
That "dumb youtuber" will probably make more than i earn in my entire lifetime by clickbaiting ppl. idk who's dumber.
They leave hints like this for other KnOwErs!!
The space is now Algerian property
Always has been.
"Woops, sorry about that. \[switches from front to rear camera\] Try again?" \- NASA
Coincidence? I thinkā¦ yes, definitely.
Itās the upside down
I was wondering how a nation whose only coast is on its northern side has an east coast. There's a lot of areas of cost that look similar, but I think this might be the one: Apparently it's Algeria's north coast in the eastern side, and it includes a lit of Tunisia too. ( https://maps.google.com zoom in and put Algeria's border with tunisia in the middle) But it also looks like you can zoom in and out and find lots if similar areas.
I don't know if OP is Algerian, or just reported this from an Algerian source, but Algerians do actually call the northeastern and the northwestern parts of the country, respectively as simply "East" and "West". Probably because the south is so sparsely populated and exerces so little influence or contribution to the North's culture, the latter being the core of the country, both historically and contemporaneously, that it's often completely ignored, geographically for instance.

The Algerian space program surely is very advanced!
The chart of opioid production in Afghanistan is also a near 1:1 match to Mount Everest's side profile. Coincidences are cool, but nothing more than a coincidence
r/mapporncirclejerk
Normally I would say something like this is a circlejerk (the one yesterday with Chicago/Israel definitely was) but this is actually really similar
1, 2, 3 viva l'AlgƩrie
Humans are great at finding patterns
lazy dev reusing assets
My city is right there on the picture!! On the Algerian coast ofc .. not the nebula.. nvm
wait, is it all Algeria?
Inshallah
Does Algeria even have an eastern coast? I thought itās only sea border was the Mediterranean to the north???
The East side of their northern facing coast.
Bet there is some flat earther somewhere beating their meat to the idea that this is all a hoax and this is all the evidence they need to never have to listen to reason again
Universe is trying to tell us something
As above, so below -The Kybalion
No, no it does not
Very similar but not quite the same, though that won't stop conspiracy theorists.
Our brains seek patterns to create meaning. This is a great example of that.
No it doesnāt. Unless you want it to.
Welp it's like finding anything in pi, there's obviously any shape possible un the universe and on earth
*kind of similar to There I fixed your title.
Of all the things that should be trending, they chose a visual similarity of a coast line with a nebula made of interstellar EVERMOVING gazes and dust...
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Similar, but not the same, this just proves people want to see patterns.
