Simply by definition of a supreme not bound by physical laws
it is impossible.

One can't make something unknowable knowable, because by
first primes unknowable means cannot know. If you were
referring to god in the above as the unknowable, then how
does one conceive of the idea? And it is assumed unknowable
because it is make-believe.
