what to say for Jim Peebles

I have been honored by an invitation to speak at a meeting in honor of Jim Peebles (Princeton) and his 2019 Nobel Prize in Physics. I spent the day working on things I want to say at this event. Obviously I have to be very critical of the Nobel Prize and all prizes! Haha. But I want to talk about large-scale structure and also the problem that we only ever get to observe one Universe. What does that mean for inductive reasoning and epistemology?
