The Nature of Space and Time (document)

Space and time are the fundamental dimensions in which we exist. Space is the three-dimensional expanse where objects and events occur, while time is the continuous progression of moments from the past, through the present, to the future. In Einstein's theory of relativity, space and time are interconnected, forming a four-dimensional fabric called spacetime. This means that the way we measure distance and duration can change based on speed and gravity, affecting how we perceive events. Essentially, space provides the "where," and time provides the "when" in our universe, shaping the reality we experience.
