"What is space"- the question that makes people like you crumble

>>11266038
>space (noun)
>the dimensions of height, depth, and width within which all things exist and move
*AHEM*
All I care for is the scientific evidence that proves "space" exists and is empirical.

>di·men·sion (noun)
>a measurable extent of some kind, such as length, breadth, depth, or height.

How do you measure "space"?

>Space is a word that was invented to describe the physical situation you find yourself in, as an empirical fact.
Well that's a cool story bro. Can I please have some empirical evidence of this place yet?

>Dimension is a word invented to distinguish and characterize one space from another
Holy shit, now there's "2 spaces"? I thought we were still on the first one.

>If you don't know what the words mean maybe you should look them up, rather than argue something doesn't exist if you can't hold it on your hand
Coming from someone who literally defined "empirical" in their post. Basically you're right.You cannot empirically show something with pure theory and logic, which is why I keep asking for empirical evidence of "Space". Kthx.

>Can you hold yesterday in your hand? Can you show me what yesterday looks like? Can you prove empirically that yesterday is a real thing and that it exists? No, you can't, because the word yesterday refers to an abstract concept, not a physical object you can touch.

So is that like a thinly veiled admission that this "space" does not actually exist? We could have saved like 8 posts.

>Do you have object permanence?

So are you saying the "space'" is actually "filled space"? Like a medium?
