    The glass is full. At standard sea-level pressure Earth, it is half-filled with a liquid and the other half filled with a gas.

    Perhaps this glass is in a vacuum, but at a temperature where the fluid won't boil away.

      Then it would be half full of liquid and half full of vacuum... presumably with the occasional spherical cow if I remember my old physics classes correctly. They come with the territory - just appearing with rhyme or reason.

        Don't those cow ussually comes in pair, I was taught that a virtual spherical cow pop into existence only to be instantly anhilited into nothingness by a virtual anti spherical cow and that even thought the cows are virtual the effects theirs farts on various fields are quite real ?
