It's models all the way down. We don't have access to some ultimate truth. Rather as you delve deeper the model is able to predict more accurately esoteric corners of reality, and/or more parsimoniously tie together the empirical facts we know.

"what really happens" is for dogmatists. If your model has no blind spots you probably haven't been imaginative enough.
