Information could become the fifth state of matter alongside gas, plasma, liquid, and solid states.
A scientist, named Melvin Vopson, has proposed an experiment to establish that information truly has mass. This type of information could be considered the “DNA” of the particles, according to Vopson’s paper.
If successful, the experiment could shed light on the mysterious dark matter in our universe, and hint to the fact that information is upstream of substance. Maybe prove that we live in a computer simulation.
