"Distance" is an article by Glenn Borchardt published on 16 February 2026 on The Scientific Worldview, answering a reader's request to expand on the subject.
Borchardt argues that without distance there is no motion of matter, and grounds the claim in two of his Ten Assumptions of Science: inseparability, that there is no motion without matter and no matter without motion; and interconnection, that between any two objects lie other objects. Distance, on this account, is not an empty interval but the condition that makes motion — and so existence — possible.
