Robust knowledge is knowledge that has stood the test of time and survived constant criticism. When a piece of knowledge is examined for its truthfulness, critics make a consensus over whether it's correct or not. The knowledge becomes robust if a consensus is reached on its truthfulness and if it survives criticism from different sides and angles.
