Some confusion surrounds the topic of Absolute Vacuums.

Most folk are really talking about 'empty space', which is a misnomer. Space is not empty. In this context, the word "hollow" is appropriate, and can be applied to this type of space, as in "A space with nothing in it."

 

An absolute Vacuum is quite different. It is a "Volume with no space in it"

From the microcosm to the macrocosm, Absolute Vacuums have never been directly observed in space. Even the thinnest intergalactic space consists of radiation, virtual particles, whole atoms. From its distinct observational absence, many would infer that Absolute Vacuums do not exist, but that is an assumption and an erroneous one, in my opinion.

 

An Absolute Vacuum cannot be directly observed because of the imposition it has on conventional space. We may only observe the volume surrounding it, and the behavior of that surrounding space.

The Absolute Vacuum itself is a singularity in that we can only speculate, but never know what occurs on the other side of the volume. I would speculate that within such a volume the concept of time and temperature are meaningless. In the short video below, one section concerns itself with a thought model that goes some way to explaining the nature of the Absolute Vacuum, and its imposition on space.

I would be most appreciative if you would place my posting in the appropriate location, and if you feel it does not merit placement, please discard.
