Good Guess @María Andrea Fernández Sepúlveda, but No.

Hint:
I am nothing, yet I am everything. You use me every day, but you never truly see me. Without me, math, science, and even your own thoughts would be incomplete

Is it possible that we are entering into the cosmological realm? :eusa-think:

@Diana Lowery and @María Andrea Fernández Sepúlveda
If you have not seen the movie Papillion I can strongly recommend it, though it does have some difficult to watch moments.
Sorry @DATo , I must have missed your post.

Here is the answer to your question:

It is somewhat related to that realm, however, you don’t have to look to the stars for this—It exists right here on Earth, in your daily life, in numbers, and in the very way you think.

Arshadq wrote: 05 Mar 2025, 11:50 Yay! Thank you @DATo And @Diana Lowery

Here is my riddle:
I exist in one place and every place at once.
I can be divided infinitely, yet I remain whole.
I am older than the stars, yet I was born today.
You can hold me in your mind, but never in your hands.
Without me, nothing would be possible.
What am I?


Good Luck!
Numbers?

@María Andrea Fernández Sepúlveda you are very close! And @DATo , try leaning more into Maria's direction.

Here is another hint:

I am the foundation of all numbers, yet I am nothing. I exist in equations, yet I hold no value. Without me, math would crumble, yet I am emptiness itself.

It seems the obvious answer would be ..... zero?

Hoooraaay for meeeeee. I never got a trophy before!!!! And I got it for nothing ....or zero, to be precise. :-D

New Riddle:

1) We are a team of men who accomplished something remarkable long ago.
2) What we did was predicted, but not in the manner in which it was fulfilled.
3) Our accomplishment has changed the world in many ways.
4) The very place where we succeeded is famous in lore.

What, or who, are we?

@ María Andrea Fernández Sepúlveda

I had a feeling someone was going to say that. No, though this too took place in relatively modern times it took place well before the Manhattan Project and involved FAR fewer people.
