cience always (or almost always) finds an explanation to the most widespread questions among human beings. Advances, in fact, have been aimed at answering every question posed, but and surprised. A bottle that, according to several experts, is impossible to fill and there is an explanation for this.

We are talking about the , first described in 1882 by Felix Klein. It is a container that, interestingly, does not have a clearly differentiated inside or outside, is closed and . It is a rather strange object that has raised many questions for decades, although everyone agrees that it is, ultimately, a challenge for the most experienced.



The scientific explanation of the Klein bottle The Instagram account @conunapregunta has published academic content explaining that this Klein bottle. "A strange object that defies human logic," the account says of the object. The most curious thing about the Klein bottle is that , which makes it impossible to recreate, since the world that humans know is three-dimensional.

"The fascinating thing is that by existing in a conceptual space it has no clearly defined inside or outside. This means that ," he says. It is a gadget that challenges "the laws of physics and logic itself".

"Some scientists believe that our universe could be something similar to a Klein bottle; , where what seems to be inside and outside has no clear distinction. This reaffirms a hermetic principle.".
