Counterintuitive

Something that’s counterintuitive (kown-ter-in-TOO-ih-tiv) is contrary to what intuition or common sense would lead you to believe.

Example (as used by Alex Green today): “Few scientific truths are self-evident. Many are counterintuitive. It is by no means obvious, for example, that empty space has structure or that everything is made of the same basic elements.”
