Matter, space, time, and dimensions are not self-existent qualities, but elements of language that are convenient for describing what we perceive with the help of our senses. If something exists and can be somehow felt by a person, then the concepts of matter, space, time, and dimensions can be extended to this phenomenon. If the qualities of this phenomenon are new, then the concepts will simply expand, new words will be invented and included in the general model of the world. For example, we didn't know about the existence of electric current, magnetic fields, then some neutrinos, then dark matter and dark energy. Gradually, observing the world, people included all these phenomena, new words in the model of the world.
If we talk about the existence of something that cannot be felt, then how do we record the act of existence? If it does not have any connection with matter, then it turns out to be some kind of independent, inaccessible world, which can not affect our world in any way. If it doesn't affect our world, then why should we know about it? We can't just spread it on bread, run it through wires, or put it in the fuel tank.
No, it is impossible, because then it would be something immaterial. And as you know , there is nothing in the world but moving matter. Space and time are forms of the existence of matter, so they also do not exist outside of matter.
This strongly depends on how to define the concept of “existence”. Some refer it exclusively to matter localized in space-time. In this case, existence outside of matter and space-time will, of course, be impossible by definition (or, at least, not quite complete). But this is not some great truth about the world, but only a problem of definition, by virtue of which everything that does not fall into it is simply put out of brackets. A similar problem arises with the term “matter”: it is not clear exactly what it should mean. If we understand it very broadly as everything that exists, then, of course, everything that exists will have to be recognized as material – but this, again, is not so much an objective truth about the world as a logical balancing act related to the choice of meanings of terms.
“Existence” can be understood as simply referring to the fact that something is somehow taking place, not necessarily in the material or space-time sense of the word. For example, logical laws, properties of matter, and laws of nature (universal ontological aspects of the world that tell matter to behave one way and not another), as well as, for example, the internal degrees of freedom of elementary particles or the Hilbert space of states of quantum systems. All of the above: 1) has no space-time character (meaningless to ask, where is the law of identity, the isospin projection, or the law of universal gravitation), and 2) itself is not matter as such that can be “felt”.
In addition, according to modern concepts, at the deepest level of the microcosm (in the region of Planck scales), space-time generally loses its usual meaning, turning into a foam of quantum fluctuations. What takes place in this case can hardly be called by any familiar term, whether it is “matter”, “space” or “time”. This is some kind of unimaginable and yet not really described by anyone mixture of quantum states that reside before space-time and generate it (along with the usual matter) as a secondary construct. This also applies to those hypothetical states and properties of the world that caused the birth of the material universe and space-time as such during the Big Bang.
We can also mention the problem of qualia (the subjective coloring of mental experience), which is a hotly debated topic in modern analytical philosophy. The question of the physical status of qualia and their relation to matter and space-time is still open.
If you understand the question in the literal sense of the word, then definitely not. Relatively speaking, yes. Now I will explain on the “fingers”. For example, if you take a certain area and place objects or some life forms there and enclose their territory limits with a sphere, you will get the following picture. You, being outside the sphere, outside the environment of existence of objects, are in RELATION to them out of space. You have one space, they have another. You are separated by a sphere. You can't be affected by what's inside the sphere.
Now it's time. This is again a relative value due to the fact that it can be tested in different ways. There is absolute time, there is subjective time (experienced by the being itself). Again, using the example of a sphere. There, creatures may experience time differently than you do. Or, for example, in space, the time is slightly different than on Earth. It proceeds in different ways. Everywhere has its own time and space))
Otherwise, it is impossible to be outside of space and absolute time at all, because you would not exist at all. Space is an environment in which there is something)) It is infinite in its essence and is separated only by borders ))
Space-Matter already exists outside of time.
The immaterial world is unknown to Materialists.
And the possibility of its existence is illusory.
That's probably it.
Quantum tunneling of any particle, its “jumps of coordinates” is realized outside of space and time. It's hard to believe, but it's true! Our compatriot, Yu. S. Vladimirov , is a brilliant physicist who successfully rebuilds this science, eliminating the fundamental role of space and time.
The person who asked this question is not entirely literate. There is no comma after the word “matter”, and it is also not clear what he is asking. For MATTER is one thing, and SPACE is another, and TIME is a third, and this time cannot be mixed with space, like oil and water – they will not mix anyway. And in general, the concept of SPACE-TIME is a non-existent concept, but only a fantasy of illiterate physicists.
Matter (coarse, dense) can not exist anywhere (sit, stand, lie, hang, etc.), except in the physical three-dimensional world.
The ignorance of the question is not at all in the word “existence” because it can be replaced with anything, but in the fact that it was possible to omit the word “matter”, since matter is always connected with space. And then the question would be simpler and clearer:
Is there something out of space?
Answer: Yes. This is the ABSOLUTE, He is the Creator, Hidden, Incomprehensible, Absolute Consciousness!
In essence, it is a question – is there a God in the World? For there is nothing OUTSIDE of EVERYTHING but God.
If the question were only about matter,then there is an answer to this question.
For example: Is there something outside of matter?
Answer:
This is a Fiery World inhabited by highly developed civilizations, in fact, gods (but not God). They are called Lords of Light, Mahatmas( Skt. – Big Spirits), Archangels and others.
There is a philosophical answer. It is necessary to define the concept of “existence”. We cannot define it without space and time without falling into meaningless idealistic reasoning. It will be something like “in the beginning there was nothing, and then everything appeared”. The inconsistency of this description is obvious.
The meaning that we usually attach to “existence” is ambiguous, implying a place and time.
From the point of view of physics, this unambiguity is found in the very mathematical formulas that are used for existing physical manifestations. These formulas are not written without time and space. What's the point?
No time? So there is no speed. When the traffic police inspector stops you on the road, you will explain to him that there is nothing to fine you for, since you could not exceed what is not there.
time in a three-dimensional world (not space) I can't imagine, there is no direction or all directions are equal, so ripple is possible. time is most likely associated with the presence of a person( observer) and two dimensions.
In my understanding, space is a category in which everything exists,matter, time, and even emptiness.There is nothing bigger and more infinite than space.
The very concept of”existence” is inseparable from the concepts of space, matter, and motion, and only as a single whole. They cannot exist in any other form. Time here is only a reflection of the movement of matter in space.
any phenomenon of our material world initially somehow dispenses with the definition of space and time.. can you point your finger – this is the phenomenon of time, and this is the phenomenon of space? after all, this is not in nature. it was our idea. even life – without reason-here I have a Redhead sleeping on the couch – he doesn't care about the problems of time. He LIVES. but this is all that we came up with-these are our problems. and there are none in the world.
By God's will, all things “exist and were created” (Rev 4: 11). Before beginning to create, God, who has always existed, was one (Ps 90: 1, 2; 1 Timothy 1: 17).
Although God, who is Spirit (Jn 4: 24; 2 Corinthians 3: 17), has always existed, the same cannot be said for the matter that makes up the universe. Hence, in creating the literal heavens and earth, �did not use matter that supposedly already existed. This is evident from Genesis 1: 1, where it says: “In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.” If matter always existed, then it would be inappropriate to use the word “beginning” in relation to material creations.On matter and time in the context of Holy Scripture
We humans know the human material world in the sensations given to us by nature in the frequency range in which we exist. But space is not limited only to the frequency and dimensionality in which humanity exists. We are surrounded by many worlds (dimensions) with other frequency ranges and a higher dimension of space, which we cannot feel due to our limitations. We don't feel them, but they are there.
For a believer, this question sounds silly and naive. After all, it is necessary to open the “Gospel of John”, and immediately we see the answer. “In the beginning was the Word” — the phrase with which it begins. That is, there was no space, no time, no matter, no energy, and the Word was already there.
For the atheist materialist, this is also not a question, he is sure that there is nothing outside of time, space and matter-energy.
It turns out that the question was asked by a person who is “neither fish nor meat”, a lost soul, a stranger.
Human existence does not take place outside of the material world. Therefore, there is no way to answer your question competently. From a philosophical and religious point of view, I can assume that God is beyond matter (and non-matter as well).
