The idea of me was born in the minds of the ancient Greeks. To them, I was the air the gods breathed. Aristotle called me an immutable and indestructible element that fills space. Rene Descartes believed that I was the one carrying the celestial bodies around the sun. They were and still are those who do not believe in my existence. Those who believe think that I am an invisible, omnipresent medium through which light spreads.
Albert Einstein said that the denial of my presence ultimately supports the assumption that empty space has no physical properties. Although many have tried to prove my existence, so far no one has succeeded.
I am an unknown substance made up of particles that are constantly moving and assembling into different structures. My shape and my condition are constantly changing. I am eternal, indestructible and infinite.
Some of you know me as the… ELEMENT.
