Define Mediocrity principle

Mediocrity principle: The principle that there is nothing predominantly interesting about our position in space or time, or regarding ourselves. This principle most likely first made its real manifestation in the scientific community whenever Shapley discovered that the globular clusters center on the center of the Galaxy, not about the solar system. The principle can be consider as a stronger form of the uniformity principle; rather of no place being appreciably different than any other, the mediocrity principle points out that, in reality, where you are is not any more extraordinary than any other.
