Good Idea: Question the nature of space time

https://www.quantamagazine.org/the-thought-experiments-that-fray-the-fabric-of-space-time-20240925/

Physicists are rethinking space-time, which Einstein described as the fabric of the universe. Many now believe it’s not the fundamental layer of reality but emerges from something deeper, like how water emerges from molecules. By exploring these three thought experiments you can get a glimpse of what scientists are dealing with.

The goal is to understand what happens when space-time breaks down, similar to how discovering atoms changed our view of the world. This could lead to a major shift in how we understand the universe.
