I mean, the even better ambiguous word would be like the stuff of the stuff.
Right.
Yeah.
I kind of like that stuff.
Anyway, lots, lots in there to unpack for the future.
Wow, Chuck.
Okay.
The answer is the key to the answer, shall we say, Raphael.
And again, an excellent question is we have not yet reconciled the situation.
You see, general relativity's mathematical equations operate well down to a particular limit.
But at that limit, it stops working in terms of how it explains how the universe works.
Sure.
Real basic.
Einstein's general theory of relativity.
in very general terms talks about space and time and how that interacts with us quantum mechanics uh this quantum world stuff it deals most with like matter and energy on the tiniest scales and how we interact with that okay when they come together space and time matter and energy they seem to
In other words, the math of quantum physics doesn't work really well when we're talking about space and time.
And the mathematics of general relativity don't seem to work very well when we're trying to talk about little subatomic particles.
Once you can combine them, right, then we're in good shape.
Now, people are working on this.
Light does seem to be a place where you both...
