Hello, teachers. How does this sentence work grammatically? Is it really "in" at the beginning?

 

[Tarheel]

I would probably not use "in" there.

 

[Ostap]

I would probably not use "in" there.

Yes but I guess he must really be saying something different.

Different from what? (I can imagine what the context is, but would only be a guess, of course.

You could use "from", but I dont quite understand the sentence.

You could use "from", but I dont quite understand the sentence.

My guess is the subject is cosmology.

As it stands, any preposition would be wrong, you need the subject for the verb "can".

It depends on what "perception of space" means. Perception and imagination are both subjective and overlapping.

I think you didn't fully understand the OP.
Also, the "perceptions" sounds a bit like "presumptions".

You can't deny the fact that human perception is subjective.

You can't deny the fact that human perception is subjective.

You can't deny grammar. If the OP is what actually was said, it's simply wrong whatever "perceptions of space" means.

From what I wrote.

He is saying in and the sentence is ungrammatical and meaningless.

My guess is the subject is cosmology.

The context is linked to in the OP. The video is about misconceptions of space in movies.
