Einstein’s Imaginary Empty Space

 

Einstein’s rejection of the aether set the stage for what became Bishop Lemaître’s explosion of everything out of nothing. In his invention of the photon Einstein assumed light was a particle instead of a wave in the aether. In support, he assumed light was a massless particle containing perfectly empty space traveling perpetually through perfectly empty space. There was no evidence for any of that. All real particles lose velocity over distance, just like a baseball when you throw it. The velocity of wave motion through a medium is controlled by that medium. That is why light speed is constant.

 

The Space Between Stars

 

In our naivety we have consider outer space to be perfectly empty. Infinite Universe Theory (IUT) rejects that totally. You see, perfectly empty space is an idealization. The opposite is perfectly solid matter. Neither of these exist. All real things—including subatomic particles—consist of mixtures of both. According to Aristotle (and IUT), the universe is infinitely subdividable.

 

Previously, I mentioned that the 2.7^oK temperature indicated by the Cosmic Microwave Background is a result of the motion of matter in outer space. The simulations produced by Beattie et. al. support that claim. As reporter Thompson writes:

 

“The charged particles in the interstellar medium are significantly more diffuse than even ultrahigh vacuum experiments on Earth. Still, their motion is enough to generate a magnetic field. This field is millions of times weaker than a fridge magnet, but in the vacuum of space, it plays a major role in shaping galaxies, and even in forming stars.”

 

Existence and the Infinite Universe

 

The fact that we exist and that nothingness does not is support for our assumption the universe is infinite. It exists everywhere for all time. Nonexistence is imaginary, just like the perfectly empty space Einstein had to imagine for his massless light particle.
