Many people would think: nothing.<\/p><p>\r\nBut that&#8217;s not true.\r\n<\/p><p>\r\nEven in these seemingly deserted spaces, &#8220;nothing&#8221; isn&#8217;t really nothing.<\/p><p>\r\nModern physics, especially quantum field theory, shows that empty space is filled with something fundamental and strange: quantum fields and the so-called vacuum energy.\r\n<\/p><p>\r\nIn quantum physics, the particles we know (electrons, quarks, neutrinos, etc.) are not the most basic things.<\/p><p>\r\nThey are merely &#8220;excitations&#8221; or vibrations in fields that exist everywhere in the universe, since the Big Bang.<\/p><p>\r\nThese fields are everywhere, even where there are no particles.<\/p><p>\r\nIt&#8217;s as if space were an invisible, calm ocean, yet still full of a kind of background energy.\r\n<\/p><p>\r\nBecause of a famous principle of quantum mechanics (Heisenberg&#8217;s uncertainty principle), this &#8220;vacuum&#8221; can never have exactly zero energy.<\/p><p>\r\nThere is always a minimum, fluctuating energy.<\/p><p>\r\nWhen physicists calculate this energy theoretically, the numbers come out very large (sometimes even infinite), but observations show that, in practice, it is small-but not zero.\r\n<\/p><p>\r\nThis vacuum energy is what we call dark energy.<\/p><p>\r\nIt is responsible for making the universe expand faster and faster, a phenomenon discovered a few decades ago that still intrigues scientists.\r\n<\/p><p>\r\nIn places full of matter, such as planets, stars, galaxies, or clusters of galaxies, dark energy makes almost no difference.<\/p><p>\r\nGravity and the enormous amount of matter dominate everything.<\/p><p>\r\nIf dark energy suddenly disappeared, life on Earth would continue exactly as before: the ball would follow the same trajectory, the microwave would heat the food in the same amount of time.<\/p><p>\r\nNothing would change in daily life or in the galaxies.<\/p><p>\r\nBut in the cosmic voids, it&#8217;s different.<\/p><p>\r\nThese giant regions have so little matter that dark energy becomes the main force.<\/p><p>\r\nIt is there, in the middle of these cosmic &#8220;deserts,&#8221; that dark energy truly acts, pushing space to expand faster.\r\n<\/p><p>\r\nIn fact, the voids are not just empty areas that arose by chance.<\/p><p>\r\nThey are actively growing and pushing the structures of the universe (such as filaments, walls, and galaxies) away from each other.<\/p><p>\r\nOver billions of years (probably between 5 and 20 billion years in the future), the voids will continue to expand so much that they will literally &#8220;dismantle&#8221; the cosmic web we see today.<\/p><p>\r\nThe large, beautiful structures of the universe are temporary-and the voids are responsible for this process.\r\n<\/p><p>\r\nSo, yes: voids are devoid of matter.<\/p><p>\r\nThat&#8217;s precisely why we can detect and study them.<\/p><p>\r\nBut, precisely because they are poor in matter, they become &#8220;filled&#8221; with dark energy.<\/p><p>\r\nThey are the only places where this energy can dominate and cause the universe to expand at an accelerated rate.\r\n<\/p><p>\r\nNo matter where you go in the cosmos-whether to the center of a bright galaxy or the heart of the deepest void-you will never be completely alone.<\/p><p>\r\nSpace itself is always vibrating with these quantum fields and charged with this mysterious energy that shapes the destiny of the entire universe.\r\n<\/p><p>\r\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-media-max-width=\"560\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">??<br>The cosmic voids aren&#39;t empty. they&#39;re filled with something far stranger.<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/CosmicVoid'src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#CosmicVoid<\/a><br><br>At first glance, the cosmic voids seem like the most desolate and empty places in the universe: <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/Qf3Ob0l61u\">pic.twitter.com\/Qf3Ob0l61u<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Ivstitia???????
