Topic: What is the "empty space" in an atom? (Read 2121 times)
To ultra-simplify. Most of the electron cloud is empty of a particle when the electron is a particle (when its being measured). But it would be changing locations so fast that the space isn't really empty. If you could blow a hydrogen atom up to a massive scale and then tried to poke the nucleus with your finger, it would be like trying to poke your finger past the blades of a nearly infinitely fast whirling fan.

Vacuum.
Vacant.
Void.
It has but , try typing in youtube , this is complicated.
No it doesn't really have. I've done my quick search. He is just trolling and what's quantum energy -.- ? also why conscious is related to humans in this case while everything even "empty space" if full of activity ?
This is the first time that I've heard about this too.The only thing that I have found is: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_energy_teleportation
I know about the quantum energy fluctuation as one of the recent noble prizes was given to a scientist who made a numerical simulation of it and how Quarks appears in the peaks of those fluctuation (of course it's quantum mechanics so it's statistical, the peak has the highest % the rest less...) but first time hearing about this theory (or rather as an independant thing, because Quarks and other subparticals appearing and disapearing is what they mean by teleportation? hmm I'll read more about it)

If you never heard of this, you can type in youtube quantum physics and Consciousness.

Dark matter
Could very well be dark matter. Scientists believe dark matter exists (unexplained gravity in the universe) but no not where it comes from.

Perhaps conscious/quantum energy does fabricate our universe.
Perhaps conscious/quantum energy does fabricate our universe.
How can one possibly think otherwise!?
Perhaps conscious/quantum energy does fabricate our universe.
It's some kind of energy right?
Perhaps conscious/quantum energy does fabricate our universe.
Consciousness.
Trolling again, are we Dank? 
Consciousness.
I'd very strongly recommend reading Lawrence Krauss' book "A Universe From Nothing". I'm part way through and the beginning alone is worth reading for a better understanding of what "empty" and "nothing" really means. Just remember that when things seem incomprehensible that means you are learning. The Universe doesn't exist for us to like the way it works, only for us to try and understand how it does.
It's more complicated than that, The Atom model does not resemble planetary model at all or rather it's more complicated than that 
, while the planetary model (Borh) explains very well the Energy Quanta (Plank) it's a simplified model that doesn't represent reality It's like Newtonian Physics vs General relativity
Here is the progression of the atomic model
It's even more complex than that today with our current knowledge and new theories

This "empty space" idea is a holdover from scattering experiments performed during the dawn of the 20th century. Most of the space in an atom is composed by the probability distribution of the electrons in the atom.
These experiments, if I am thinking of the same ones you are, more properly explain that most of the atom is "not the nucleus", not that most of the atom is "empty space". Of course, they still teach the Bohr model in schools, so it is no surprise that people get confused even after taking "some chemistry".
The atom is like a solar system. The nucleus is the sun and the electrons is the planets.
right. that's why it goes 2,8,8,16. just like the sun and the universe
You mean 2, 2, 6, 2, 6, 2, 10, 6?
