Is Space a life Form?

Question

It may sound fun, But it seems we have little knowledge of the space.

If we understand the properties of space then we must be able to make machines that can exceed speed of light by far.

Answer 1

Space is an essential entity of life, but alone it does not constitute life.  Life requires 3 essential ingredients: space, energy, and time (....or if you'd rather, spacetime and energy).  Space acts as a container within which energy can move.  Energy acts as the filler which gives the container meaning (a container without any contents is not a container).  Together they form matter and all that we see.  And time acts as another type of container about which space and energy can interact.  I envision space, energy and time as 3 circles and life only to exist where the 3 circles overlap.

How space, time and energy interact is governed by universal properties.  In its purest sense, we have captured this interaction in one term (the speed of light in a vacuum).

Answer 2

We,and others like us are what gives a form of life and self awareness to space and the universe.

  It is a factor of time that has a minimum span,that can;t be divided that limits the speed of light.

  Without being able to divide the smallest time span we can't increase the speed of light.

Answer 3

i think that no one knows for sure if ther is a life out there but personally ithink there might be a life but do we really want to meet that form of life?i mean they might be smarter than us or might want to destroy us.i dont wanna meet them.and where are u planning to go by a machine faster than the light?

Answer 4

NO. Space is not a life form. Space does not replicate itself, live or die. As best we can tell, space has no dimensions, although we can make measurements of distances within it.

Space is what we call the thing that holds all astronomical bodies whatever they are, and wherever they are.

It is true that we have "LIMITED" knowledge of space, but the things that we do know about it are rapidly expanding with the deployment of various scientific instruments aboard satellites which scan the universe collecting data of all types about radiation, temperature, radio noise, photographs, etc.

The objective you mentioned next, exceeding the speed of light, does not have any linkage to your previous comments or questions. At this time there is no technology which can produce acceleration of a given "object" anywhere close to the speed of light. About the closest we can come to that has been the various experiments involving the bombardment of atoms with neutrons in a particle accelerator when atomic research is being done. There is quite a large difference between a "neutron" and a space ship containing electronics and passengers, as you might well imagine.

Light travels at 186,000 MILES PER SECOND.

Man has been able to accelerate various manmade objects to speeds of around 50,000 MILES PER HOUR in recent years.

Look closely at the terms SECOND and HOUR. You will note that there is a huge difference between MPH and MPS. Acceleration to the speed of light would subject an object or person to immense "G FORCES" which one might suggest would leave just a smear of the original object or person on the sides of the container (if the container could withstand the force). Humans have a problem dealing with G Forces around 9 -10. This is why many fighter jet pilots wear G Suits.

Answer 5

You can't travel faster than the speed of light within space. But space itself is expanding, so for example two galaxies on opposite sides of the universe from us may be moving away from each other at faster than light speed even thugh neither galaxy is travelling very fast "through" space.
