... “If one assigns the intrinsic 3-geometry, one cannot also specify the extrinsic curvature. The uncertainty principle thus deprives one of any way whatsoever to predict, or even give meaning to, 'the deterministic classical history of space evolving in time'.” (C.W. Misner, K.S. Thorne, J.A. Wheeler ...
