What's left is a region with lower zero point energy than the surrounding region. Meaning there's a slight inward force on the plates. The effect is known as the Casimir Effect en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casimir_effect | |

| Sep 30, 2015 at 21:39 | comment | added | DoubleDouble | You might be interested in Philosophy, it's off-topic here because its not a question of how the "nothing" would impact your world. Note that, even if it were about a fictional world that you are writing about, this question would probably still be closed as "too broad" because the answer would be "it could behave however, you, the writer, wanted it too for your story" | |

| Sep 30, 2015 at 16:56 | comment | added | god of llamas | I do not see why this has been "put on hold as off-topic". Would the physics of purely theoretical and fictional things not be considered as within the scope of worldbuilding? I mean, I can sort of understand, but I don't think the physics stack exchange would be the right place to ask this question and this stack exchange seems to be the best place for it, and it is objective and it's about the physics of a fictional (aka. realistically impossible) "thing". | |

Nothing? I think that is the answer you are looking for. Jokes aside, I think this is a little broad. Why would space time around a path of nothingness be affected by the nothingness? A better question is, why is your nothing not filled by something? Is this the edge of our universe we are talking about? If it is, and the nothing is unchanging as you have stated, then how does our universe continue to expand?
