Does light push space?
Let me explain. Let's assume that we are in a large room that is completely empty and dark. We switch on a light bright enough to fill the entire area. Does the space in the area get pushed to the sides, or does the light simply fill the space?

How do you know for sure?

>> No.2600171

Yes. Darkness is matter, and when light comes in they bump into the darkness and shove it into the corner until the light goes back off.

But OP, if the room is empty, how can there be space in it?

Mind = blown

>> No.2600196

impossible to say because light "darkness" can't be valid as anything because we have no proof it exists yet

>> No.2600202

Post your face when light is antimatter and space is darkmatter.

>> No.2600203

wouldnt that pushing of spacetime cause gravitational waves propagating from the lightsource and substantially large waves for supernova?

I would explain why things rotate.

This is truly....the stupidest thread on 4chan right now. Congratulations, that's quite a feat.

Every time I flip on a light in a dark room, all my shit moves towards the walls just a little bit. science.

>> No.2600254

Technically yes. The pressure in the room goes up ever so slightly, since light has momentum and pushes on the sides of the walls, so the volume in the room goes up a little.

However, the answer to what I believe you are asking is no, the space itself doesn't get pushed to the sides. The only thing that can warp space is the presence of nearby matter, in which case it gets pulled to the sides. Even more technically, the light would pull in the space around it since light does curve space just like matter does. But this would be so freaking negligible that it's not even worth mentioning.

Light pushes space and gravity, gravity pulls space and light. Basically, ying-yang.

Also magnets

>> No.2600283

Light is actually heavier than dark; thus when light enters a space, dark is pushed downward by the gravitational pull between the earth and light.

This is where shadows come from!

light fills the space as space consists of nothing
