THE views of space and time which I wish to lay before you have sprung from the soil of experimental physics, and therein lies their strength. They are radical. Henceforth space by itself, and time by itself, are doomed to fade away into mere shadows,...

In a 1908 lecture, Minkowski said, "Henceforth space by itself, and time by itself, are doomed to...of the two will preserve an independent reality." Despite support from a core of physicists, mainly in Germany, broad acceptance for special relativity... | |

In other words, Einstein's special theory of relativity implied that space and time were to be unified... | |

In his enthusiasm Minkowski exclaimed, 'Henceforth space by itself, and time by itself, are doomed to...of the two will preserve an independent reality.' This famous, but excessive, claim tended to reduce the importance of time much more than that of space.... | |
