Bruno Latour on Uncertainty and Knowledge

The world is not a solid continent of facts sprinkled by a few lakes of uncertainties, but a vast ocean of uncertainties speckled by a few islands of calibrated and stabilized forms. Do we really know that little? We know even less. Paradoxically, this ‘astronomical’ ignorance explains a lot of things.” (Latour 2005: 245)
