What is Space actually Made On?
I do not mean the atoms, energy, mass, baryonic matter, planets, dust, moons, or plasma that make up the Universe?
I mean what is holding these physical structures of mass.
I am specifically talking about what the matter is in or on.
Like if you see a painting or drawing. You look at what the drawing is of.
But what is the ink or paint on? What is the canvas made of?
The question we need to ask ourselves is what are we as mass, such as the planets, and the vacuum of space on?
For instance we are 1 astronomical unit from the Sun.
We are 150 million kilometres from the Sun.
And some would say there is nothing between the Earth and the Sun. Just a near perfect vacuum, with virtually nothing between us.
But that is not what I am asking. I am asking what is holding that vacuum. On another level what is the vacuum of 150 million miles on.
You cannot have 150 million miles of nothing. I know you will say it is a vacuum. But what is that vacuum on.
I mean if you had a mile of space on Earth. Yes it might be containing matter, such as oxygen, rocks, oceans, clouds, humans, animals, and plants. But if you had a mile of outer space. There might be a near perfect vacuum. But it is still 1 mile of space. The same distance both times.
So the thing is. Surely the 1 mile of near perfect space and 1 mile of Earth, are the same distance. So what is holding that 1 miles of space whether it be a near perfect vacuum or as on Earth containing huge amounts of matter.
The actual structure that holds 1 mile of vacuum space and 1 mile of matter, must be the same thing,
So what is that is holding the 1 mile of space and 1 mile of Earth matter.
I know the Universe contains mass, energy, matter. But what is it on?
This is a vital philosophical and scientific question.
1 mile of mass and 1 mile of space vacuum, are both the same distance. What are they both on?
It is as if we are people painted on a canvas that tells a story or landscape. On one level you can as an art critic try to explain the story that the painting is telling. But to make that work of art you must know what we are made. Are we paint, or are we layers of different paint on a canvas? And what is that canvas made of? A canvas with no paint on it, is the same distance as a canvas with a beautiful landscape or mythical scene.

Sorry, but such knowledge is not discoverable by humans.
 
Currently, it's turtles all the way down ... atoms are build of protons etc., protons of quarks, so it's an easy speculation quarks are made of phasions ... just smaller and smaller sub-units ...

"String Theory" is philosophy ... and the string would be the smallest and most basic of all existence ... but we have no experiment that demonstrates the existence of this "smallest corpuscle" ... but research continues ...

Gee whiz. Who do we know who still hasn't figured out how to respond to a particular post?

Isn't that the Boney One?

Forgive me for going off topic for just a minute.

? - you mean religion? God?
That doesn't answer the question, only the source
The question has no answer acceptable by science.

"Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear." -Hebrews 11:3

How do you know that? ... what experiment can we perform to demonstrate your claim? ...

One answer is the Standard Model ... science accepts that ... as far as I know, there are no counter-examples known ... her only flaw is that she's silent on the subject of gravity ... but all of the universe is made of just these seventeen different species of sub-atomic particles ... nothing smaller ... "gravity is just an effect of our frame-of-reference" or some such ...
 
Theories change. The current one is that space is not a giant vacuum but composed of dark matter or something we haven't figured out the particulars of yet. Part of it will be shaped by or end up shaping our knowledge of "sound"
