Visible into the Invisible

Dear Viewer: all you truly have to look forward to; is the Resurrection from this visible into the invisible Kingdom of God of Eternity and Infinity!!! All life and things on Earth, remain here. Everything will rust, rot and die; as it will return to the basic elements from which it came.

You are wasting your life, if you only spend your time consumed with Earth life!!!

Colossians 1: [12] Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light: [13] Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son: [14] In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins: [15] Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature: [16] For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him: [17] And he is before all things, and by him all things consist.

I Timothy 1: [17] Now unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only wise God, be honour and glory for ever and ever. Amen.

Matt.22

  1. [23] The same day came to him the Sadducees, which say that there is no resurrection, and asked him,
  2. [28] Therefore in the resurrection whose wife shall she be of the seven? for they all had her.
  3. [30] For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels of God in heaven.
  4. [31] But as touching the resurrection of the dead, have ye not read that which was spoken unto you by God, saying,

1Cor.15

[1] Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand;
[2] By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.
[3] For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;
[4] And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
[5] And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve:
[6] After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep.
[7] After that, he was seen of James; then of all the apostles.
[8] And last of all he was seen of me also, as of one born out of due time.
[9] For I am the least of the apostles, that am not meet to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God.
[10] But by the grace of God I am what I am: and his grace which was bestowed upon me was not in vain; but I laboured more abundantly than they all: yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me.
[11] Therefore whether it were I or they, so we preach, and so ye believed.
[12] Now if Christ be preached that he rose from the dead, how say some among you that there is no resurrection of the dead?
[13] But if there be no resurrection of the dead, then is Christ not risen:
[14] And if Christ be not risen, then is our preaching vain, and your faith is also vain.
[15] Yea, and we are found false witnesses of God; because we have testified of God that he raised up Christ: whom he raised not up, if so be that the dead rise not.
[16] For if the dead rise not, then is not Christ raised:
[17] And if Christ be not raised, your faith is vain; ye are yet in your sins.
[18] Then they also which are fallen asleep in Christ are perished.
[19] If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable.
[20] But now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the firstfruits of them that slept.
[21] For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead.
[22] For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive.
[23] But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ’s at his coming.
[24] Then cometh the end, when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power.
[25] For he must reign, till he hath put all enemies under his feet.
[26] The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death.
[27] For he hath put all things under his feet. But when he saith, all things are put under him, it is manifest that he is excepted, which did put all things under him.
[28] And when all things shall be subdued unto him, then shall the Son also himself be subject unto him that put all things under him, that God may be all in all.
[29] Else what shall they do which are baptized for the dead, if the dead rise not at all? why are they then baptized for the dead?
[30] And why stand we in jeopardy every hour?
[31] I protest by your rejoicing which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die daily.
[32] If after the manner of men I have fought with beasts at Ephesus, what advantageth it me, if the dead rise not? let us eat and drink; for to morrow we die.
[33] Be not deceived: evil communications corrupt good manners.
[34] Awake to righteousness, and sin not; for some have not the knowledge of God: I speak this to your shame.
[35] But some man will say, How are the dead raised up? and with what body do they come?
[36] Thou fool, that which thou sowest is not quickened, except it die:
[37] And that which thou sowest, thou sowest not that body that shall be, but bare grain, it may chance of wheat, or of some other grain:
[38] But God giveth it a body as it hath pleased him, and to every seed his own body.
[39] All flesh is not the same flesh: but there is one kind of flesh of men, another flesh of beasts, another of fishes, and another of birds.
[40] There are also celestial bodies, and bodies terrestrial: but the glory of the celestial is one, and the glory of the terrestrial is another.
[41] There is one glory of the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars: for one star differeth from another star in glory.
[42] So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption; it is raised in incorruption:
[43] It is sown in dishonour; it is raised in glory: it is sown in weakness; it is raised in power:
[44] It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body.
[45] And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit.
[46] Howbeit that was not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; and afterward that which is spiritual.
[47] The first man is of the earth, earthy: the second man is the Lord from heaven.
[48] As is the earthy, such are they also that are earthy: and as is the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly.
[49] And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly.
[50] Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption.
[51] Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,
[52] In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.
[53] For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.
[54] So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.
[55] O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory?
[56] The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law.
[57] But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
[58] Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.

2Cor.4

[1] Therefore seeing we have this ministry, as we have received mercy, we faint not;
[2] But have renounced the hidden things of dishonesty, not walking in craftiness, nor handling the word of God deceitfully; but by manifestation of the truth commending ourselves to every man’s conscience in the sight of God.
[3] But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost:
[4] In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.
[5] For we preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord; and ourselves your servants for Jesus’ sake.
[6] For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.
[7] But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us.
[8] We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair;
[9] Persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed;
[10] Always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our body.
[11] For we which live are alway delivered unto death for Jesus’ sake, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our mortal flesh.
[12] So then death worketh in us, but life in you.
[13] We having the same spirit of faith, according as it is written, I believed, and therefore have I spoken; we also believe, and therefore speak;
[14] Knowing that he which raised up the Lord Jesus shall raise up us also by Jesus, and shall present us with you.
[15] For all things are for your sakes, that the abundant grace might through the thanksgiving of many redound to the glory of God.
[16] For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day.
[17] For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory;
[18] While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.

Link: dark matter effect on atoms

Dark matter is thought to interact with ordinary atoms primarily through gravity, but it does not affect them in a way that would be noticeable in everyday life. Its influence is mainly observed on a larger scale, such as in the motion of galaxies and galaxy clusters, rather than directly altering atomic structure

Effects of Dark Matter on Atoms; Interaction with Ordinary Matter

Dark matter does not interact with ordinary atoms through electromagnetic forces, which means it does not absorb, reflect, or emit light. This lack of interaction makes it invisible and difficult to detect directly. However, dark matter does exert gravitational influence on ordinary matter, affecting the motion of stars and gas in galaxies.

Gravitational Influence

The presence of dark matter alters the gravitational field in which ordinary atoms exist. This influence can lead to:

  • Galaxy Formation: Dark matter acts as a gravitational scaffold, helping to organize galaxies and large-scale structures in the universe.
  • Galactic Rotation: Observations show that galaxies rotate at speeds that cannot be explained by the visible matter alone. Dark matter provides the additional mass needed to keep these galaxies intact.

Potential Effects on Atomic Structure

While dark matter’s direct effects on atomic structure are minimal, it could theoretically influence the energy states of atoms. If dark matter consists of weakly interacting particles, it might create “virtual particles” that could subtly alter the energy levels of electrons in atoms. However, these effects would be extremely small and not noticeable in everyday conditions.

Link: dark matter effect on human body

Dark matter is generally considered to have a negligible effect on the human body, as its particles, like WIMPs, interact very weakly with normal matter. However, some studies suggest that if dark matter were to interact more strongly, it could potentially cause significant damage, similar to a gunshot wound, but such encounters are extremely unlikely

Dark Matter and Its Interaction with the Human Body

Dark Matter Basics

Dark matter is a mysterious substance that makes up about 80% of the universe’s mass. It does not emit light or energy, making it invisible and detectable only through its gravitational effects on visible matter. The leading candidate for dark matter particles is Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs), which interact very weakly with normal matter.

Frequency of Dark Matter Interactions

Research indicates that the average human body is struck by dark matter particles approximately once a minute. These interactions primarily involve WIMPs colliding with atomic nuclei in the body. For a typical person weighing around 154 pounds (70 kg), it is estimated that they could experience up to 100,000 WIMP collisions per year.

Potential Effects of Dark Matter Collisions

While WIMPs generally pass through the human body without causing harm, there are some considerations:

  • Low Risk of Injury: The weak interaction of WIMPs with normal matter means that collisions are unlikely to cause significant damage. The odds of a harmful event occurring from these interactions are very low.
  • Higher Energy Interactions: If two WIMPs collide, they can annihilate, releasing energy. However, such events are rare and would not typically occur within the human body.

Other Dark Matter Forms

There are also theories about macroscopic dark matter, which could behave like larger particles. If such particles exist, they might cause significant damage upon collision, similar to a gunshot wound. However, the likelihood of encountering such dark matter is extremely low.

Conclusion

Overall, while dark matter interacts with the human body, the effects are minimal and pose little danger. Current scientific understanding suggests that these interactions are mostly harmless due to the weak nature of dark matter’s interactions with normal matter.

Link: dark matter surrounding earth

Dark matter is thought to surround Earth in the form of invisible halos or filaments, influencing the motion of galaxies and other cosmic structures through its gravitational effects. While it cannot be directly observed, scientists infer its presence from the gravitational interactions it has with visible matter in the universe.

Overview of Dark Matter Surrounding Earth

Dark matter is an invisible substance that makes up about 27% of the universe’s total mass-energy content. It does not interact with light, making it difficult to detect directly. However, its presence is inferred through gravitational effects on visible matter.

Theoretical Presence of Dark Matter Near Earth

Recent studies suggest that Earth may be surrounded by dense, hair-like filaments of dark matter. These filaments could be located about one million kilometers from our planet, potentially allowing for direct observation with specialized detectors.

Characteristics of Dark Matter Filaments

  • Density: The filaments are theorized to be very dense, with the highest density point located behind Earth.
  • Size: These structures could be as large as the Solar System itself.
  • Detection: Dedicated space-based detectors could be positioned to observe these filaments, providing insights into dark matter’s nature.

Evidence for Dark Matter

The existence of dark matter is supported by various indirect observations:

  • Galactic Rotation: Stars in galaxies move in ways that suggest more mass is present than what we can see.
  • Gravitational Lensing: Dark matter’s gravity bends light from distant objects, allowing astronomers to map its distribution.
  • Cosmic Microwave Background: Fluctuations in this radiation provide clues about dark matter’s role in the early universe.

Conclusion

While dark matter remains elusive, ongoing research and theoretical models continue to explore its presence around Earth and throughout the universe. Understanding dark matter is crucial for comprehending the cosmos and its structure.

Link: can you touch dark matter

It is highly unlikely that anyone could touch dark matter, as it is an invisible substance that does not interact with normal matter in a way that we can perceive. Dark matter is thought to make up a significant portion of the universe, but it remains undetectable through direct contact or observation.

Understanding Dark Matter

Dark matter is a mysterious and invisible substance that makes up about 27% of the universe. Unlike ordinary matter, it does not interact with light or other forms of electromagnetic radiation, which is why it is called “dark.”

Interaction with Ordinary Matter

  • Dark matter does not interact with normal matter in a way that we can perceive.
  • It is believed to exert gravitational forces, which influence the motion of galaxies and other cosmic structures.
  • Because it does not reflect or absorb light, it cannot be seen or touched.

The Nature of Dark Matter

  • Dark matter is thought to consist of particles that interact very weakly with ordinary matter, possibly through a force known as the weak nuclear force.
  • This weak interaction means that dark matter particles are extremely difficult to detect and study.

Conclusion

In summary, it is highly unlikely that a human could ever touch dark matter. Its properties make it invisible and non-interactive with the matter we encounter in our daily lives. Scientists continue to study dark matter to better understand its nature and role in the universe.

Link: earth dark matter halo

A dark matter halo is a theoretical region of space that contains gravitationally bound dark matter, which is believed to envelop galaxies like the Milky Way. These halos are inferred from their gravitational effects on visible matter and play a key role in galaxy formation and evolution.

Understanding Dark Matter Halos

What is a Dark Matter Halo?

A dark matter halo is a theoretical structure in cosmology that contains gravitationally bound matter. It is believed to be a key component of galaxies, including our Milky Way. Dark matter halos are not directly observable; their existence is inferred from their gravitational effects on visible matter, such as stars and gas.

Characteristics of Dark Matter Halos

  • Composition: Dark matter halos are thought to consist mainly of dark matter, which does not interact with electromagnetic forces, making it invisible. This type of matter is estimated to make up about 95% of the total mass of galaxies.
  • Structure: A dark matter halo can contain multiple smaller clumps of dark matter, known as subhalos. These halos extend well beyond the visible parts of galaxies and play a crucial role in galaxy formation and evolution.
  • Density Profile: The density of dark matter in a halo typically decreases with distance from the center. A common model used to describe this is the pseudo-isothermal halo, which mathematically represents how density varies with radius.

The Milky Way’s Dark Matter Halo

The Milky Way is enveloped by a dark matter halo that is roughly spherical in shape. This halo is estimated to contain between 600 billion to 3 trillion solar masses of dark matter. The gravitational influence of this halo is essential for the stability and structure of the galaxy.

Recent Research Developments

Recent studies have introduced new computational tools to explore the behavior of dark matter halos, particularly self-interacting dark matter. These advancements help scientists understand how dark matter influences galaxy formation and the dynamics of cosmic structures over time.

Link: milky way dark matter halo

The Milky Way dark matter halo is a vast, roughly spherical region surrounding our galaxy, composed mainly of dark matter, which does not interact with light and is detected through its gravitational effects. It is believed to contain about 95% of the galaxy’s total mass, influencing the motion of stars and gas within the Milky Way.

Overview of the Milky Way Dark Matter Halo

The Milky Way’s dark matter halo is a vast, roughly spherical region that surrounds the galaxy. It is believed to contain about 95% of the galaxy’s total mass, primarily in the form of dark matter, which does not interact with light and is detectable only through its gravitational effects.

Structure and Composition

  • Size: The dark matter halo extends approximately one million light-years across, which is about ten times the width of the Milky Way’s visible disk.
  • Density: The density of dark matter decreases with distance from the galactic center. At the Sun’s distance from the center, the dark matter density is estimated to be around 0.0088 pc⁻³.
  • Mass: The halo is thought to contain between 6×10¹¹ to 3×10¹² solar masses of dark matter, while the luminous matter (stars, gas, etc.) makes up about 9×10¹⁰ solar masses.

Formation and Role

Dark matter halos are crucial for galaxy formation and evolution. They provide the gravitational framework that allows baryonic matter (normal matter) to coalesce and form stars and galaxies. The formation of these halos is believed to have occurred through density perturbations in the early universe, leading to gravitationally bound structures.

Recent Discoveries

Recent studies have revealed complexities within the Milky Way’s dark matter halo. For instance, new measurements indicate that the rotation curve of stars at the galaxy’s outskirts shows a decline in velocity, suggesting that the halo may be less dense than previously thought. This has led to theories about a “cored” structure, where the central region of the halo has a lower density than expected.

Understanding the Milky Way’s dark matter halo is essential for comprehending the galaxy’s structure and the nature of dark matter itself.

Key Characteristics

  • Composition: Dark matter halos are primarily made up of dark matter, which does not interact with electromagnetic forces, making it invisible.
  • Density: The density of dark matter decreases with distance from the galactic center. For example, the Milky Way’s dark matter halo is estimated to contain about 6×10¹¹ to 3×10¹² solar masses of dark matter.

Formation Process

  • Dark matter halos formed early in the universe’s history, driven by gravitational collapse of density fluctuations.
  • They provide the gravitational framework necessary for baryonic (normal) matter to coalesce and form stars and galaxies.

Evidence of Dark Matter Halos

Rotation Curves

  • The presence of dark matter is inferred from the rotation curves of galaxies. Observations show that the rotational velocities of stars do not decrease as expected with distance from the galactic center, indicating additional unseen mass.
  • This phenomenon supports the existence of dark matter halos surrounding galaxies.

Recent Discoveries

  • New computational tools have been developed to study the evolution of dark matter halos, particularly self-interacting dark matter halos, which may influence galaxy formation and star formation processes.

Milky Way’s Dark Matter Halo

The Milky Way is enveloped by a dark matter halo that extends well beyond its visible disk. It is estimated that about 95% of the Milky Way’s mass is dark matter, which significantly influences its gravitational dynamics and structure.

Link: dark matter effects on humans

Dark matter primarily interacts with ordinary matter through gravity and does not have strong effects on humans. While particles of dark matter, like WIMPs, may occasionally pass through our bodies, they are not harmful due to their weak interactions with normal matter.

Dark Matter and Its Effects on Humans

Interaction with Dark Matter

Dark matter is an invisible substance that makes up about 27% of the universe. It does not interact with light or electromagnetic radiation, which means it cannot be seen directly. Instead, its presence is inferred from its gravitational effects on visible matter, such as galaxies.

How Dark Matter Affects Humans

  • Particle Interactions: The average human body is estimated to be hit by dark matter particles, specifically Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs), about once a minute. These particles typically pass through without causing any harm due to their weak interactions with normal matter.
  • Potential Collisions: While WIMPs can collide with atomic nuclei, the likelihood of such events causing damage is extremely low. For instance, a 154-pound person might experience about ten significant collisions with WIMPs each year, but these interactions are not dangerous.

Risks and Safety

  • Low Risk of Harm: The odds of a dark matter particle causing harm are minimal. Studies suggest that if dark matter particles were capable of causing serious injury, there would be evidence of such incidents, which has not been observed.
  • Annihilation Events: If two WIMPs collide, they can annihilate, releasing energy. However, the probability of this occurring within a human body is very low, making it unlikely to pose any real danger.

Conclusion

Overall, while dark matter is a significant component of the universe, its effects on humans are negligible. The interactions are so weak that they do not pose a threat to human health or safety.

Link: how much dark matter does your body absorb

Your body interacts with dark matter particles, specifically Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs), about once a minute, but these interactions are extremely weak and do not pose any danger. Overall, dark matter is thought to make up about 85% of all matter in the universe, but it does not interact significantly with normal matter like your body.

Dark Matter Interaction with the Human Body

Dark Matter Composition

Dark matter is an invisible substance that makes up about 85% of all matter in the universe. It does not interact with light or other forms of electromagnetic radiation, making it difficult to detect directly.

Interaction Frequency

Research suggests that particles of dark matter, specifically Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs), pass through the human body frequently. Estimates indicate that an average human is hit by a dark matter particle approximately once a minute. This means that over the course of a year, a person could experience tens of thousands of interactions with dark matter particles.

Effects of Interaction

Despite the high frequency of these interactions, WIMPs have a very weak effect on normal matter. When they do collide with atomic nuclei in the body, the interactions are typically harmless. The energy released from these collisions is minimal and does not pose a significant risk to human health.

Interaction Type Frequency per Minute Annual Interactions
Dark Matter Particle Hits 1 ~525,600

In summary, while dark matter particles are constantly passing through us, their interactions are rare and not harmful.

About 99.9999999% of an atom is considered empty space, primarily due to the vast distance between the nucleus and the electrons that surround it. However, this “empty space” is not truly empty, as it contains quantum fields and particles.

Atoms and Empty Space

Understanding Atomic Structure

Atoms are often described as being mostly empty space, but this is a misconception. While it is true that the nucleus of an atom is much smaller than the atom itself, the space within an atom is not truly empty.

Composition of Atoms

  • Nucleus Size: The nucleus is about 100,000 times smaller than the atom.
  • Electrons: Electrons exist in a cloud around the nucleus, and their positions are described by wave functions, which means they occupy space rather than being fixed points.

Misconceptions About Empty Space

  • Percentage of Empty Space: The claim that atoms are 99.9999999% empty space is misleading. Instead, the space within atoms is filled with quantum fields and particles.
  • Electromagnetic Forces: When we “touch” something, we are actually feeling the electromagnetic forces between the electrons of our atoms and those of the object.

Conclusion

While the idea of empty space in atoms is popular, it does not accurately reflect the complexity of atomic structure. Atoms are not predominantly empty; they are filled with energy and particles that contribute to their mass and interactions.

Link: what percentage of space is empty

About 99.9999999% of your body is considered empty space, as atoms are mostly made up of empty space between the nucleus and the electrons. This concept applies to all matter in the universe, which is largely composed of empty space as well.

Understanding Empty Space in the Universe

Matter in the Universe

  • Approximately 0.0000000000000000000042% of the universe contains matter.
  • The total volume of matter in the universe is about 1.1E+57 cubic meters.

Composition of the Human Body

  • The human body is made up of 99.9999999% empty space.
  • Atoms consist of a nucleus surrounded by electrons, with the nucleus being around 100,000 times smaller than the atom itself.

Space Between Galaxies

  • Most normal matter in the universe is not found in stars or galaxies but is dispersed in the intergalactic medium.
  • This medium contains individual particles and atoms, forming a cosmic web throughout space.

Summary of Space Composition

Aspect Percentage/Volume
Matter in the Universe 0.0000000000000000000042%
Empty Space in the Universe 99.9999999999999999958%
Empty Space in Human Body 99.9999999%

Overall, both the universe and the human body are predominantly composed of empty space, highlighting the vast emptiness that exists in our physical reality.

Link: what percentage of the human body is empty space

About 99.9999999% of the human body is empty space. This means that if all the empty space in our atoms were removed, the entire human species could fit into the volume of a sugar cube.

Percentage of Empty Space in the Human Body

The human body is composed of approximately 99.9999999% empty space. This means that nearly all of the matter that makes up our bodies is actually just empty space at the atomic level.

Understanding Atomic Structure

Atoms and Their Composition

  • Atoms consist of a nucleus (made of protons and neutrons) surrounded by electrons.
  • The nucleus is about 100,000 times smaller than the atom itself.
  • If an atom were scaled up to the size of a baseball stadium, the nucleus would be the size of a peanut.

Why We Can’t Walk Through Walls

Despite being mostly empty space, we cannot pass through solid objects due to the Pauli Exclusion Principle. This principle states that no two fermions (like electrons) can occupy the same space at the same time. Therefore, when we try to walk through a wall, our electrons cannot coexist with those in the wall, preventing us from passing through.

Conclusion

In summary, while the human body is overwhelmingly empty space, the interactions at the atomic level create the solid structures we experience in our daily lives.
