No aether.

Nobody said anything about aether. The medium through
which EM waves flow is space which indeed does have
a structure. Space is definitely not nothing.

I showed you my references, now you show me yours.

There is a medium that does NOT have Nitrogen, Oxygen, Hydrogen, and noxious
carbon based gases. That medium is not compressed by the effects of gravity. Any
molecules present have very large inter molecule dimensions, maybe even miles.

The medium does have the presence of EM energy in the form of x-rays and gamma
rays [among other more exotic energy forms], it also contains ionizing particles
[neutrons, protons and electrons], it does support gravitational fields, and it
has both a dielectric constant and a permeability. The ratio of dielectric
constant to permeability is approximately 377 ohms.

This medium supports EM radiation from deep space to the local earth. What do
you choose to call it?
