Topic: Absolute space

	Lefebvre Absolute Abstract Differential Space, Bo Grönlund 1993
		Absolute space is the opposite of the space of a secular life, that is freed from politico-religious space, from the space of signs of death and of non-body.
		The cradle of absolute space is a fragment of agro-pastoral space that is assigned a new role as sacred (i.e.
		Abstract space is that space where the tendency to homogenisation exercises its pressure and its repression with the means at its disposal: a semantic void abolishes former meanings (without, for all that, standing in the way of the growing complexity of the world and its multiplicity of messages, codes and operations.

	Absolute space - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In physics, the notion of absolute space underlies the laws of classical physics of Isaac Newton.
		The idea of the absolute space was superseded by the notion of spacetime in special relativity and especially the dynamically curved spacetime in general relativity.
		A complication in Newton's absolute space is that it implies that there is at least one inertial system out of an infinite number that is unique.

		Historical Eminences who have taken sides in these debates include Isaac Newton (space is absolute), Gottfried Leibniz (space is relational), and Henri Poincaré (spatial geometry is a convention).
		Space is the relatively empty parts of the Universe, outside the atmospheress of planets.
		In some orthographies, a space is a blank area that serves as punctuation to provide interword separation.

	Absolute and Relative Space, Time, and Motion (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		Relative space is some movable dimension or measure of the absolute spaces, which our senses determine by its position to bodies and which is commonly taken for immovable space; such is the dimension of a subterraneous, an aerial, or celestial space, determined by its position in respect of the earth.
		Absolute and relative space are the same in figure and magnitude, but they do not remain always numerically the same.
		Absolute motion is the translation of a body from one absolute place into another, and relative motion the translation from one relative place into another.

	Newton's Views on Space, Time, and Motion
		Paragraph VI defends the thesis of the immobility of (absolute) space, which against the backdrop of Descartes, clearly means that the parts of space, just as the parts of time, do not change their relation with respect to one another.
		In announcing at the outset of these arguments that "absolute and relative rest and motion are distinguished by by their properties, causes, and effects", Newton indicates his intent to show that they cannot, at least if true motion and rest are to have those features we generally associate, or ought to associate, with them.
		In contrast, because the parts of absolute space are not directly accessible to the senses, Newton confesses, it is very difficult to ascertain the true motion of individual bodies and to discriminate them in practice from the apparent motions.

		Relative Space is some moveable dimension or measure of the absolute spaces; which our senses determine, by its position to bodies; and which is vulgarly taken for immovable space...
		With the discovery of the relativity of simultaneity, space and time were merged in a single continuum in a way similar to that in which the three dimensions of space had previously merged into a single continuum.

		Absolute place differs from relative place in that it requires no relationship to any other body to be determined; it is determined by the construct of absolute space itself.
		Absolute motion, then, is the translation of a body from one absolute position to another.
		The concept of inertial frame is important, because it is integral to an attempt at rationalizing the existence of absolute acceleration, Newton's final hope in proving the existence of absolute space.

	The Relativity of Space, Henri Poincare
		Space is in reality amorphous, and it is only the things that are in it that give it a form.
		Absolute space exists no longer; there is only space relative to a certain initial position of the body.
		For a conscious being, fixed to the ground like the inferior animals, who would consequently only know restricted space, space would still be relative, since it would be referred to his body, but this being would not be conscious of the relativity, because the axes to which he referred this restricted space would not change.

	Space and Time: Inertial Frames
		Newton therefore held that physics required the conception of absolute space, a distinguished frame of reference relative to which bodies could be said to be truly moving or truly at rest.
		When bodies are enclosed in a given space, their motions in relation to one another are the same whether the space is at rest or whether it is moving uniformly straight forward without circular motion.
		Yet these spaces, though empirically indistinguishable, were not equivalent in principle; evidently Newton conceived them as moving with various velocities in absolute space, though those velocities could not be known.

		absolute space - this is such a space and frame of reference in which all objects moves with the maximal allowed velocity - the speed of light.
		I called this system of reference absolute space, the picture can be always reversed and it can be said that absolute space is immovable and everything else is moving with velocity c according to it.
		Photons will not be absorbed at same time in ANY frame of reference, except the frame that is immovable according to the absolute space, or where the velocity in the absolute space v is 0.

	The Speed of Light - A Limit on Principle?
		However, it has to be emphasized that although the existence of a physical absolute time (or, equivalently, a preferred reference frame) could not be established by experiments, the theory of special relativity does not disprove it either.
		While time and space appear somehow "on equal rights" in the Lorentz transformation equations, this is not the case within the formalism of quantum mechanics.

	ABSOLUTE SPACE AND RELATIVITY— NEWTONIAN MECHANICS: Newton's Assumption of Absolute Space
		On occasion of Galileo’s conflict with the Inquisition the issue of absolutism versus relativity became clear as far as the general problems of the truth of science and of the truth of speculation and religious symbolization are concerned.
		Newton envisages absolute space as an absolute order of “places”; this order of places is a “primary” system to which motion ultimately can be referred.
		The well-intentioned theory of absolute space had resulted in precisely the disorder it had intended to avert.

		He is aware that space must possess a kind of physical reality if his laws of motion are to have any meaning, a reality of the same sort as material points and their distances.
		Absolute space is no vacuum, but something with definite properties whose state is described with the help of two directed quantities, the electrical field E and the magnetic field H, and, as such is called the ether.
		The picture was, then, as follows: space is filled by the ether, in which the material corpuscles or atoms of ponderable matter swim around; the atomic structure of the latter had been securely established by the turn of the century (1900).

	Why Time is Absolute, and Relative, But Never Universal
		The meaning of this definition is at once clear if the event occurs in the immediate vicinity of the clock in space; for all observers then observe the same clock-time simultaneously with the event (by means of the eye) independently of their position.
		Any experiment, for example, whether he measures the space (extension, distance), and the time of impact of a bullet fired from a gun, or a beam of light from one wall of his "elevator" to the other wall, will have constant results regardless of direction.
		The absolute and relative nature of time (motion/light) is difficult to grasp for anybody, particularly when our textbooks and our professors are not perfectly clear (often times because they don't grasp it well).

	Kant, Immanuel (1724-1804) : Routledge Encyclopedia of Philosophy Online
		Kant argues that 'existence is not a predicate or a determination of a thing' (2: 72), but rather the 'absolute positing of a thing' (2: 73); that is, the existence of its subject is presupposed by the assertion of any proposition, not inferred from the concepts employed in it.
		Finally, the brief essay on Directions in Space argues that incongruent counterparts, such as right- and left-handed gloves, which have identical descriptions but cannot occupy the same space, prove that the qualities of objects are not determined by concepts alone but also by their relation to absolute space.
		Kant did not yet raise metaphysical questions about the nature of absolute space or epistemological questions about how we could know it, but this essay can be seen as introducing the distinction between intuitions and concepts which was to be a cornerstone of Kant's subsequent thought (see §5).

		Newton argued that space, time and motion were absolute, i.e., that the entire universe was a single, uniform inertial frame and that time passed equably throughout it according to an eternally fixed, immutable and inexorable rate, without relation to anything external.
		Intervals of space, like length, and intervals of time (and hence, motion) are no longer absolute quantities.
		For any pair of events, the spacetime interval is an absolute quantity (i.e., has the same value) for all inertial observers.
