For the first time, researchers have observed a rare quantum effect in deep space that proves vacuum is not entirely empty, but rather teeming with virtual activity that alters light. This breakthrough confirms a 90-year-old prediction by physicist Werner Heisenberg, opening an exciting new window into how we understand the fundamental fabric of our universe.
