Default Vacuum - what is it?

Space is made of stars and systems separated by huge amounts of
nothing. That nothing is the vacuum of space. However this nothingness
in nevertheless very real.

The vacuum is not nothingness. It is composed of particles, photons to
be exact. The vacuum is the aether. Interactions between matter and
the aether give rise to all EM phenomena. But the aether serves a much
greater purpose than this. Without the aether, there could be no
motion at all. Motion is caused by a series of particle interactions.
Deny at your own detriment.

The failure of physics to acknowledge the causality of motion will go
down as the greatest blunder in the history of science. Even worse
than the flat earth hypothesis. ahahaha...

Ma Nature sure is fickle!
She abhors a vacuum, and tries to pull matter (and emr particles)
together via gravity; but when TOO great a density/accumulation occurs,
blasts the lot wherever (too much uranium in one lump/Sns )

The vacuum is not nothingness.

What is nothingness then? Nothing?

It's unlikely that point-particles appear from nowhere. As quantum
gravity suggests point-particles cannot be fundamental.

Space is nothing !! releat- nothing

people confuse *the content inside space* which is particles

with the net space (between the particles)

sapce has no properties at all except hostng particles

all physics is in particles properties in that lack of propertles
of space.

so get off the back of space
and start concentrating on
the different properties of different *particles*

I would not even say that space "host" particles. Space does not exist
at all.

Well said. Physics is all about particles, their properties and their
interactions. Everything else is either voodoo or abstract.

A vacuum is the absence of all that matters.

You guys with your fundy particles. Particles schmarticles.

The vacuum is just 4 dimensions, LxLxLxT.

The dimensions are physically tangible real things, not merely some
imaginary or abstract mathematical instrument.

Dimensions are the most fundamental thing in physics. There is no
fundamental particle.



Dimensions in physics are tangible - not abstract.
