I'm not a physicist. I am interested in the philosophy of physics.
What is the Role of Philosophy in Physics?

In summary, the role of philosophy in physics is to provide a framework for understanding the fundamental principles and concepts that govern the natural world. It helps physicists analyze and interpret experimental data, develop new theories, and make connections between different areas of physics. Philosophical concepts such as causality, time, and space play a crucial role in shaping our understanding of the physical world and guide the development of new theories and models. Additionally, philosophy encourages critical thinking and questioning, which is essential for the advancement of scientific knowledge. Without the philosophical approach, physics would not have the deep theoretical foundations and conceptual clarity that it possesses today.

Hello and 
!
Have fun and stay curious!
However, I'm afraid that we do not discuss philosophy here. It leads nowhere, everybody has another opinion, and finally, many disappointed users will have left the debate and the rest are grouped into two sections fighting each other endlessly.
