The observer could observe, they just couldn't make any analysis, since there would be no events in the past (or future) to compare the current observations to.

light needs time to travell through space (what means that it has a speed). Observation happends through light.Thus, time must exisy to observe.

An observer wouldn't neccesarliy need light to observe.

What do you mean when you refer to "space"?

From an "inside" point of view of the universe are there places where matter doesn't exist, where there is essentially nothing?

True. That's only for animals and humans (if you can differentiate between these...I can't..sometimes....lol).

I should right distance. And I get this from v=s/t which confuses, because has an S instead of d for distance.

True vacuum doesn't exist, it's impossible (at least for me, and also others). But there are indeed places where there is no matter: I think. Although maybe very reduced and remote parts of the universe.

Can you ellaborate on why it's impossible for true vacuum to exist?
Can you explain what you mean by 'reduced' parts of the universe?

It is imposswible to create a vacuum space because you have to do all what is needed: absolutelly no particles of matter, no force carriers (bosons), no energy, absolute zero.....(some of these are impossible).

I mean a small part of the universe, a very small one.

I'm inclined not to believe that vacuum space is not possible. A space where nothing exists within our universe seems very unlikely. However, in those places where we can't observe anything, there must be something (dark matter and energy). My understanding of dark matter and dark energy approaches 0.

That number is the probability I give DE and DM to exist.

That leads me back to the original theory of goo, only slightly modified to reflect Potential. If dark energy and dark matter don't exist something else must be there in order to for vacuum space to not exist.

If we take the point of view that the every single point in the goo (ether, aether, etc) has a default Potential of 1, vacuum space, dark energy/matter are no longer neccesary (although they may exist).

Before we go on, some assumptions about the goo:
1) the goo is one object, unlike a liquid, solid, gas, or energy. This allows instantaneous communication between points.
2) the goo's nature is "change"


To start, for me it's easiest to view the goo as a 2D solid plane (circle). Anywhere you poke the circle, you are poking the circle. Now we overlay the circle with an infinite number of points, each with a Potential of 1. That's how I perceive it except in 4 dimensions (x,y,z,t).

As one point is reformed its potential increases or decreases. This is how we get matter. For example, a point with Potential 0.0393948458 could be an neutron, a point with Potential 0.999 could be light in its wave form.

Travel is reforming points along certain vectors. Travelling faster than the speed of light would require the technology and intelligence to reform two non-contiguous points in the 4 dimensions.

I'm interested in discussion on this.

what if the "goo" can travell in time, at the speed it wants? then, it's speed cis a variable. Or maybe it shoudln't "move" in space, but in time only-just ideas.
