If you look on a map of the Uk, there is nothing directly north of Leeds, in the middle of carlisle and Newcastle, all the way upto Glasgow.
No cities or towns whatsover by the looks of it.
I understand the penine hills may cover some of that area, but saying that, Leeds, Huddersfield, Bradford etc are all on the Penines.
So why is there nothing there?
Such a big space!
I'm all for it being nice countryside but for imagination - Would it be possible to start a New Town/City there?

Yes, there is a huge American surveillance site there. It has attracted attention of protesters in the past a la Greenham Common. Menwith Hill in the UK is the principal NATO theater ground segment node for high altitude signals intelligence satellites. The facility, jointly operated with the UK's Government Communications Headquarters (GCHQ), is now capable of carrying out two million intercepts per hour. You are being watched!

NO! WHY DO YOU WANT TO? Don`t we have enough towns and cities without covering an area of outstanding beauty with more? STUPID!

Distance won't be a "factor" subsequently no-factor does not mean no-distance. this is an precis volume that 2 products have with comprehend to one yet another self sufficient of each and every thing else that is occurring around them. actual you could actually say how can area "exist", yet that doesn't seem what you're arguing based on the the remainder of your factors. area isn't unquestionably incredibly empty. interior of a vacuum there are consistently debris being continuously created and destroyed; quantum fluctuations that ensue, statistically with the aid of fact they are able to (the ergotic theory). yet this would possibly not be the issue you have have been given in concepts. i will see your reasoning from the jar: e.g. take 2 products seperated by employing 10cm, positioned a vacuum between them and hello presto there's no distance between them anymore. As to the a hundred% vacuum in a jar:- the jar collapses with the aid of fact of exterior rigidity no longer with the aid of fact of inner suction. The molecules of the air exterior the jar are continuously colliding with it pushing the jar inwards. whilst there's a vacuum in the jar there's no counter rigidity of molecules pushing back on it to stability it. subsequently it incredibly is going to cave in. This analogy can not strengthen to an area vacuum as there's no longer a jar that includes area with air rigidity exterior of it. area is considered unbounded. Vacuum is the norm and the place rigidity wallet ensue in area (e.g. stars and planets) the rigidity that pushes them out into the vacuum is balanced by employing their gravitational rigidity in direction of one yet another. ok so for that reason in the adventure that your a hundred% vacuum jar is placed interior a a hundred% vacuum it won't cave in (implode) as there is in simple terms as lots rigidity utilized to make it blow out (explode) - (unquestionably those 2 balanced forces are 0 besides yet shall we in simple terms stick to the balance of forces theory for the time). same with the earth and moon. there's a vacuum in between yet there is likewise vacua on the two side and a stability of forces! So for that reason no the earth and moon are not without warning sucked collectively by employing the lack of ability of stuff between yet stay aside in a balanced style giving a particularly consistent distance between them.

Have you not heard of National Parks and the English Lake District. They are guarded jealously and building is strictly controlled. We just like our solitude and space. Leave it that way please.

get on maps.google.com, switch to sattelite mode and see for yourself.
if it happens to be a secret military base, and you'll get arrested, it's not my fault.
