As written before space is experienced through an amalgamate of sensory information.
The Platonic Elements provide a starting point for this discussion. Besides the 4 elements (earth, air, fire, water) there is a fifth which Plato writes about, and this is Cosmos.
Delving further into Cosmos a ethereal aspect can be derived from this. An ethereal aspect which I relate to space. Not claiming myself to be a Platonic thinker (maybe sometimes) I believed at one point the Cosmos/Ether/Space was a combinatorial experience of the 4 other elements (earth, air, fire, water). I still believe this to be true but in not such a Platonic matter.
As Machiavelli writes in The Prince (paraphrased) the importance of a good strong foundation. I believe a foundation of these 4 elements is a good starting point.
Semantics changes this Platonic thinking.
