It seems to me that saying that space or space time have a non-Euclidean geometry is while true and an advance over the previous situation. vacuous. Space and spacetime are both ideas, cognitions and perceptions ''of'' physical realities. This theory seems to be to be nothing more than a mathematical advance not an an advance in physics per se. | ||
# [[:en:Quark Confinement]] similar situation. Underlying these is the question: what does it mean for a thing to exist as a physical object? I would say it must first of all be a thing not a nothing, i.e. it must be matter or energy. Unlike space-time quarks may be assumed to be real objects. At this point I haven't been able to understand that they are and therefore suspect they aren't. | # [[:en:Quark Confinement]] similar situation.
