Immanuel Kant (1724 - 1804) speculated about the structure of our Milky Way system and favored the
Milky Way system and favored the hypothesis of an extra-galactic position of the observed
position of the observed "nebulae" in the sky.
Nevertheless, he took a skeptical view of cosmology because, according to his
epistemology, the world as a whole cannot be an object of experience.
In the 20th century, observations and theoretical astrophysics overcame his
reservations about a physical cosmology.
