The Fabric of the Cosmos: What Is Space?
Physicist Brian Green hosts "The Fabric of the Cosmos," a four-part series about space, time and the universe. Part 1, "What Is Space?," explains that space isn't the void it's often portrayed to be, but a dynamic tapestry that's manipulated by gravity.

...exist all at once(same time). That does tend to agree, i think, with what a man of wisdom called Solomon once said. He said that there was nothing
new under the sun. Although i think his wisdom may have been tempered by all those wives he had.
Actually i just watched The Illusion of Time, twice. I couldn't quite stay awake for the first ending. They don't yet know just how close they are to something.

So you slid through a wormhole and landed in the past

Not quite. I got sucked up by the wormhole of ZZZZZZ, missed the ending, and waited for the PBS wormhole to bring the past ending to the future, where it became the present, and i saw it for the first time. Of course at this point, i am mearly speaking of a past series of events.

Well, I'll walk away from you now so that your past series of events corresponds to my now.
