matter made of space not energy?

The standard interpretation of particle physics and relativity equations like E=MC2 is that matter and energy are forms of the same thing.Therefore you can change matter into energy in a nuclear reaction. But I believe that matter isn't a form of energy but a form of space.I believe that energy doesn't exist in the spacial dimension it meerly interacts with the spacial dimension. Energy is by its very nature atemporal and non spatial. the lorentz transformation equation says this. Taking the model of the space/time continuum when something travels at the speed of light i.e, electromagnetic radiation, space contracts to zero and time expands to infinity. Therefore energy is non spatial and atemporal. Not very good carachteristics for matter. energy isn't travelling through our spatial dimension it is interacting with space. I don't know what space is obviously and most scientific explanations have concentrated on the energy side of things or at least what we thought was energy. So if we think of non-local energy interacting differently with these different forms of space and thats why we observe different forms of energy. And when we have a sudden spacial rearrangment such as a nuclear rearrangement we have vast amounts of energy released.We aren't turning matter into energy.We are changing the spacial arrangement so energy interacts with it in a very different way. e.g what was so uranium has become a massive explosion.

Hypography?

Hypography [n.]: A combination of "hyperlink" and "bibliography" - ie, a list of links to electronic documents. Comparable to discography and bibliography, but not cartography.

We have been online since May 2000, and aim to be the best place to find and share science-related content of all kinds.

Share the love!
