This has been addressed many times before. You might want to do some homework before you claim that Nobel! One cogent argument is called
Godel's First Incompleteness Theorem, to wit:
Quote:

Any effectively generated theory capable of expressing elementary arithmetic cannot be both consistent and complete. In particular, for any consistent, effectively generated formal theory that proves certain basic arithmetic truths, there is an arithmetical statement that is true, but not provable in the theory.

Also, see references to quantum mechanics,
Rice's Theorem, and many, many popular books.
