Eh? "Quanta" doesn't mean "aether". Are you having problems with terminology?

Yes. Space being a void means it is devoid of matter. The quanta of gravity are not bits of matter, they are the quantized disturbances in spacetime itself, without matter present. PD

You disagree with a lot of things in your freshman physics text. You disagree that an object dropped from a plane stays under the plane, so that in the plane frame it falls vertically, even though your book tells you so. (You even have trouble seeing this in the plane frame at all.) You disagree that physical fields exist in empty space, even though your book tells you so. You disagree that empty space has physical properties like permittivity, permeability, impedance, even though your book tells you so. You disagree that fields have momentum and energy, even though your book tells you so.

Note what Weinberg actually said: "...something LIKE the various sorts of stress possible within a solid body, but a field is a stress IN SPACE ITSELF." He does not say that stress only happens in solid bodies. He says that stress happens in solid bodies AND in empty space, and the stress in empty space is something like the stress in solid bodies. This does NOT mean that empty space is a solid body. > > > > > Physical properties are not limited to matter. > > > You know that there is a permittivity of EMPTY SPACE?

OK, the above is what Weinberg said. > BTW only solid body can have stress This is what YOU say, not what Weinberg said. > so weinberg implied that space is > a solid body. No, he did not, because he does not say that only solid bodies can have stress. In fact, he said that empty space can have stress too. Ken, you have this nasty habit of combining something that Weinberg says with something YOU say, and then claiming that the conclusion from the combination is what Weinberg says. You have this nasty habit of combining something that Einstein says with something YOU say, and then claiming that the conclusion from the combination is what Einstein says. You have this nasty habit of combining something that I say with something YOU say, and then claiming that the conclusion from the combination is what I say. When you do this, you are LYING. Weinberg did NOT say that an electric field is a stress in a solid body. He said that an electric field is a stress in empty space. Weinberg did NOT say that only solid bodies can have stress; YOU did. When you claimed Weinberg said it, you were LYING. > > Ken Seto > > > > > > > Physical properties are not limited to matter. > > > > > You know that there is a permittivity of EMPTY SPACE?
