Detailed Inquiry Into the Meaning of the Question ‘Is the Moon there When Nobody Looks?’ and Related Matters, of Relevance to Foundational Physics

Authors: Georgina Woodward

The usefulness of the analysis is presented. Some history of the question related to Einstein is given along with the supposed motivation for asking it. Questions are asked about the meaning of the starting question. What is meant by ‘the Moon?, and what is meant by: there? The lack of precision of the question is identified. The biology of vision is briefly discussed. What is an observer? is considered. For completeness ‘What is a question?’ And, ‘Where is a question?’ are also discussed. Further evidence of unseen and unmeasured existence is given. This paper concerns Metaphysics.
