What is space-time?

This post is all about that “Field” that has never be detected and yet is a hypothetical concept. This kind of “Field” is used to describe the structure of space. This “Field” is applied geometry.

First, we ask ourselves “what is space? “and why it exists without any cause? This is something like “matter without space and space without matter”. But probability will definitely solve our biggest mystery that resides in our universe.

For an excerpt, we have Dark Matter but we are unable to know why this is indispensable for “Primordial Atom” - probability is the best way to define the existence of every “Field” whether this is in form of geometrical space or in quantum space. Best excerpt of “Field” is related with “Geometry of Space” (not including Callabi-Yau Manifold) and manifests how space itself is a “Field” and is a medium (not, electromagnetic but something different).

Are you talking about the gravitational field? It really doesn't deserve "quotation marks" as there is no real mystery behind it.

Listened to a Science Friday podcast recently where they had physicists on answering questions about what they're excited about. This one physicist said we're just at the beginning of learning about the nature of space that will take us a thousand years.

A "field" is a mathematical construct. To apply field mathematics to the existence of objects in space and time requires some fundamental assumptions, axioms. Are you familiar with some of the axioms which are employed?

Space is space. Time is time.
'Space-time' is sophistry based on blatantly illogical pseudo-mathematics.
However, such an idea is very 'popular' which itself shifts the question into
the realm of metaphysics: What is knowledge?

"Space" and "time" are arbitrary constructs conceived by humans in order to try and explain the world around us. The infinite universe cannot be defined by such entities.

Nice to see the objections to the intentional and artificially designed deterministic construct of space-time. It brings a smile to me. People are still examining for themselves.
