Well surely 1, 2 and 4 are true, e.g, it was once thought that earth was the centre of the universe, this was revised and rejected. Scientists are still researching the existence of the universe using more advanced technology to test old theories. There are also new phenomena in which cannot be explained but there are theories to suggest why. But 3 is completely wrong as they are not treated as facts but a prediction until proven.
