Register for the "Unobvious History" conference: https://delib.ru/meetings/1790 Andrei Burovsky continues his series on cosmology and addresses the nearly forgotten concept of the universal ether. Drawing on Conan Doyle's novella "The Poisoned Belt," he recalls that Mendeleev included the ether in his worldview and even wrote a separate work on the topic. The theory of relativity has displaced the concept from scientific language, and modern physicist Robert Laughlin says the word ether itself has become obscene in academic circles. Burovsky draws a parallel with the history of ocean exploration: sailors' tales of rogue waves 30 meters high were considered fiction for decades until the phenomenon was confirmed. The main thesis: near-Earth space has been well studied, but the interstellar medium remains largely unknown, and it's too early to close the door on the properties of the vacuum.
