spacetime

1. (uncountable)The four-dimensional continuum of the three spatial dimensions plus time.

   An event is a point in spacetime, specified by the coordinates x, y, z, and t.

   Raumzeit

   простра́нство-вре́мяprostránstvo-vrémja

   про́стір-часpróstir-čas

   the four-dimensional coordinate system (3 dimensions of space and 1 of time) in which physical events are located

2. (countable, uncountable)An n-dimensional continuum consisting of dimensions of both space and time. Normally spacetime is considered as having 4 dimensions (x, y, z, t), but higher-dimensional spacetimes are often encountered in theoretical physics, e.g. the 5-dimensional spacetime of Kaluza-Klein theory or the 11 dimensions of spacetime in M-theory.

   a Minkowski spacetime

   a 5-dimensional spacetime

3. (countable, uncountable)A specific region of the universe with mathematically different properties than the surrounding spacetime. Synonymous with "metric" within the context of general relativity.

   a Schwarzschild spacetime

   a Reissner-Nordström spacetime

1. Einstein discovered that space and time are just two different aspects of spacetime.

   Ейнштейн виявив, що простір та час — лише два різних прояви простору-часу.
