Space

The document discusses space as the three-dimensional extent where objects have position and direction, although modern physics considers space and time as part of a four-dimensional continuum known as spacetime. The concept of space is considered fundamentally important to understanding the physical universe, though philosophers disagree on whether space is an entity, a relationship between entities, or part of a conceptual framework.

Space 

is the boundless three-dimensional extent in which objects and events have


relative position and direction.[1] In classical physics, physical space is often conceived in
three linear dimensions, although modern physicists usually consider it, with time, to be part of a
boundless four-dimensional continuum known as spacetime. The concept of space is considered
to be of fundamental importance to an understanding of the physical universe. However,
disagreement continues between philosophers over whether it is itself an entity, a relationship
between entities, or part of a conceptual framework.
