The ether does not exist. What we call “space” is light decentrated (expanded, radiated). Space is relatively cold, but not without seeming light motion. Therefore “space” is the negative half of the physical universe, while “matter” is the positive half. The pressures of motion between space and matter balance each other out continuously. https://wikischool.org/divided_light

This story is actually about the fourth-phase of matter (though they claim their own discovery), the charged liquid crystal: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q33KyLkP_Rg

These four states of matter (gas, liquid, liquid-crystal, solid-crystal) correspond to charge and geometries: https://wikischool.org/divided_light#crystallization_and_dec...

Nice bit of pseudo-science you got there.

[leoxvi]

Nice bit of non-arguments you got there.

Snappy comebacks aside, your original post is a load of hot nonsense. I’m not sure what argument you’re expecting when you post the lunatic fringe on an article about quantum physics. Your first link is religious, your second a video I’m not clicking, and the third is more of the first religious stuff. How’s this for an argument? I’ll respect your religion if you keep it out of my science.

Non-arguments still. Also, spirituality is not religion, nor is spirituality mutually exclusive with science. Scientism with its snarky, ignorant arrogance is a sad religion.

The video is actually pretty good, your choice though.

Gerald Pollack has also written a small book (full of science!) on the 4th state of matter (crystalline liquid): https://file.io/SGlzL0

“As a man who has devoted his whole life to the most clearheaded science, to the study of matter, I can tell you as a result of my research about the atoms this much: There is no matter as such! All matter originates and exists only by virtue of a force which brings the particles of an atom to vibration and holds this most minute solar system of the atom together. (…) We must assume behind this force the existence of a conscious and intelligent Spirit. This Spirit is the matrix of all matter.” - Max Planck

“Science is incompetent to reason upon the creation of matter itself out of nothing. We have reached the utmost limit of our thinking faculties, when we have admitted that because matter cannot be eternal and self-existent, it must have been created.” - James Clerk Maxwell

Yeah, but maybe those guys were not "real scientists", but just religious lunatics! Downvote, censor and burn them!
