i think nothingness is a third form of energy different from potential and kinetic

physics states that there are only 2 forms of energy, potential and kinetic.

but i think nothingness is third form, and dark energy is a manifestation of nothing energy.

this is the only form of energy that exists at the beginning of the universe.

That is just redefining what nothing means.

It's like if I have a glass full of water and I say the glass is empty because water is nothing.

If nothing is energy then doesn't that make it something?

in the current state of physics, where people just make up new stuff (dark energy, dark matter) to make the world fit the models rather than the other way around, this theory might very well be the basis of a fruitful academic career

you just have to make the case that unless we assume nothingness has energy (let's call it dank energy), then there's no hope of making a universal theory of physics, and then just wait for the taxpayer money come trickling in

the brilliance of this scheme is that every time classical physics like general relativity is wrong, we can use this as proof that our theory is correct - just like in modern theoretical physics

If you look at it this way,

Things need places to go.

But what if space is not making things move but instead transferring with those things.

Like bit flipping.

You switch places, some with non and non with some. But over a distance.

i just feel like potential and kinetic alone cant xplain everything

there is excess energy that is conserved and converted somewhere.

I think you need to be much more specific. The world is full of kooks who think their ideas overturn accepted paradigms, and to differentiate yourself you need to lay out exactly what the problem is and how you resolve it.

What can't potential and kinetic explain and how does your theory fill that gap in a way alternatives can't?

I appreciate your thoughts on this. It seems to me that nothingness is nothingness. Nothing energy doesn't make any more sense than a nothing number or a nothing letter or a nothing chair...Out of nothing comes nothing. What do yo think?

Good thoughts. Of course, nothingness can't have energy. Nothingness is nothingness.
