nothing

[ving]

thats right, astronomers discover nothing in the crater constellation... well its not really nothing as such but a piece of empty space. maybe this is whats beyond our universe, empty space rather than nothing. :)
anyhow, heres the article: http://space.com/scienceastronomy/060414_nothing.html

Not really nothing when they state it has about 50 stars and galaxies! Considering 1 galaxy may well contain a 100 billion starrs, it's an interesting proposition for nothing!
I guess it's all relative when you conpare this to those pin-head fields of Hubble that show up hundres of galaxies...!

well, ok then.... next to nothing. still so few objects in the one space is quite interesting :)

Is nothing the same thing as empty space, or is empty space something? :confuse3: :poke:

It's a good place for future telescopes to go real deep and find something very very far away! ;)

[wavelandscott]

I was thinking (scary in itself) like starkler...is nothing the absence of something or another thing in itself...

[ving]

of course empty space is something :rolleyes:

jut dont ask me to explain it right now :P

[robagar]

On a quantum level empty space is supposed to be full of matter-antimatter particle pairs popping into existence and annihilating each other, just so you can't be too sure that the energy is exactly zero :P

Or, empty spacetime is what you measure acceleration against so it must be something, kinda.
