We haven't determined whether every finite geometric shape can always be perfectly reconstructed from a limited set of simple measurements.

Reconstruction problems in geometry ask how much partial information is truly enough to rebuild a full shape with certainty, and general limits for all shape classes remain incompletely understood. This connects pure mathematics to practical fields like imaging and tomography.
