My speculation.

Everything began from Infinite Energetic Vacuum: T=0K.
Somehow, the energy is extracted from the Vacuum
(the Energetic Dirac Soup) and turned into particles.
The Materialistic World gets its finite being
from an Infinite Energetic Being – Vacuum: T=0K.

To understand this ‘speculation’ we must know:
1. What is Vacuum: T=0K ?
2. Which virtual particles can exist in Vacuum?
3. How can virtual particles turn into real particles?
======== .
Until now the physicists ignore the Vacuum Energy T=0K
because it is the Zero Point Energy for our measuring devices.
Because the Absolute Zero Point Energy is border for our
measuring devices.
Can this fact be enough reason to stop our investigation?

When the next revolution rocks physics,
chances are it will be about nothing—the vacuum, that endless
infinite void.

MY speculation is that a vacuum still means 'nothing' so those not so smart scientists need to either reclassify the 'emptiness' of space as something other than a vacuum, or simply deny that anything exists in the vacuum of space.



Infinite energy being sounds to much like 'God'.

Thus far God has been very good at hiding His (her, its) tracks. I would hate to think that we would find God in nothing. Or worse, find that God was careless to leave visible tracks in nothing.

Sorry I am unfamiliar with the formula T=OK, care to enlighten a little on what the components of that equation relate to?

My speculation is that vacuum doesn't mean nothing; only that it doesn't appear to contain anything physically tangible. Surely every known vacuum I can imagine still contains energy, if electrical, magnetic, or gravitational forces are considered energy. And if matter can be converted into energy, and it certainly seems to do so all the time, isn't it conceivable that energy should be able to be converted into matter ? If e = mC^2, mightn't
m = e/c^2 ?

If the latter is the case, energy turning into matter it is God doing it, right?

The Dark Energy is the Vacuum.
Vacuum is not a dead space.
Vacuum is some kind of Energetic Space as the
Quantum Theory says.
The Energetic Vacuum itself is ‘ The Dark Energy ‘.
The physicists only invent new word ‘Dark Energy ‘ instead of
to say ‘ ENERGETIC VACUUM ’.

Dark Energy may be Vacuum

Not necessarily. You or I, or Socratus could do it if we knew how and had enough of the right equipment. IMHO.

Yabbut you'd burn your fingers!

No, silly! I'd only do a small sample batch at first. And I'd wear oven mitts.

Not that it matters, but we were doing a thorough, New Year tidy up of the apartment and made a new space for our vacuum in one of the hall closets. It took quite a lot of energy, though.

You're starting to sound like a true theoretical physicist. Where the math leads, reality follows.

But matter and energy are identical, anyway. Because matter implies energy, and energy implies matter. And if a implies b AND b implies a then a=b.
