Imma wait to be excited about this, it's some kinda nonsense like gigantic atoms, with a hard candy shell made of bubbles but the energy of 10 suns idk man that's pretty out there

Ofc existence is pretty strange on a good day ...

Well, black holes are pretty out there, too. Singularities don't really make sense with our current understanding of physics. Also we can directly observe some really weird states of matter like bose einstein condensates, so I don't think this is ridiculous.

My mang if giant atoms exist then we are definitely the empty space between them, part of a large X-dimensional furry

With the number of 'impossible' things I'm seeing each day in the news, this video was met with an optimistic shrug and a bottle of wine before work.

I mean physics is insane in general. XKCD had a video the other day that mentioned that if you had enough light/a strong enough laser, space itself stops being transparent because matter suddenly starts materialising out of nothing and blocks the light.
