The property of matter that gives it momentum when moving at some velocity.
Hmmm, mass is the deformation of spacetime or quantum vacuum or non
classical aether or whatever you want to call it.
The only tiny issue is that we don't know how does look that deformation
at the quantum level :-)

Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being
