The End of Space and Time and the 3-Sphere — •Alexander Unzicker — Pestalozzi-Gymnasium München

It is argued that there are no true fundamental constants; rather their alleged existence points to an incomplete understanding of reality. Based on that premise, it turns out that space and time are unlikely to be appropriate concepts for a proper understanding of nature. Rather than a 3+1-dimensional spacetime, it is argued that the 3-dimensional unit sphere is a better candidate for a fundamental description of reality. In many aspects, its properties reflect phenomena commonly attributed to quantum mechanics.
