And time just a value indicating the pressure of the warp?

Space, outer space, is a something. It is not a nothing as many people might imagine. Because it is a something, it can be and is affected by gravity. It is warped by it.

The presence of observable mass, like hydrogen atoms, is not necessary for space to warp because it is space itself that warps. Thus, the warp has no dependency on or affect on the temperature and pressure of hydrogen or any other distributed mass throughout space.

It is affected by accumulated mass, like stars and the planets, however. These are the bodies that create the gravity that bends the space (and time).

There is a theory that space is made up of something called the Higgs Field. [See source.] As a field, the Higgs Field has direction, but the direction may be over higher dimensions than the 4 dimensions we can observe. What is of interest in the Higgs Field is that, theoretically at least, it determines if quanta (like bosons, muons, photons, etc.) have inertia or not.

If the quanta are aligned with the Higgs Field (in these multiple dimensions), they exhibit no inertia. If they align against the force field, they exhibit inertia in our 4D universe.

If a quantum has inertia, we say it has inertial or, equivalently, rest mass. And rest mass (m0) is that mass we find in E = mc^2, F = GmM/r^2, F = ma, and all those other force and energy equations that have mass in them. So the quanta making up that mass (m) are aligned against the direction of the Higgs Field.

I don't remember if it was Bohr or not that did the Auf Bua principle but I think that might be what you're talking about. With the advent of quantum theory they think that an electron can be almost anywhere at one point in time - ex: It could be here or it could be on Mars. However, the two theories are linked in the fact they believe that electrons have different energy levels and that the valence electrons are the source of molecular bonding. IE: Carbon could have -4 charge or a +4 charge. Hydrogen has a +1 charge while Oxygen has a -2 charge. Atoms seem to be happy when the outer energy level is complete. For more information on this consult a periodic table.

Well, if you put it this way,
space is a vacuum with some matter, or without it -
the warped or not does not change it.
