Space is not a continuous fabric from "summary" of Seven Brief Lessons on Physics by Carlo Rovelli
In the world of quantum physics, space is not a continuous fabric; it is made up of grains. These grains are so small that they are smaller than anything we can possibly observe. They are the smallest possible grains of the world, the fundamental building blocks of space itself. The discovery of these grains has completely changed our understanding of the universe. It has forced us to rethink the very nature of reality. Space is not something that is fixed and unchanging; it is a dynamic and ever-changing entity that is constantly being created and destroyed at the smallest scales. This idea of space being made up of grains is not just a theoretical concept; it has been confirmed by experimental evidence. Scientists have observed the effects of these grains in the behavior of particles at the quantum level. They have seen how particles can be both here and there at the same time, how they can be in two places at once. This strange behavior of particles is a direct c...
