Most things around us is just empty space.

A hydrogen atom is only about a ten millionth of a millimeter in diameter, but the proton in the middle is a hundred thousand times smaller, and the electron whizzing around the outside is a thousand times smaller than THAT. The rest of the atom is empty.

So we just make it out to be that a solid is a solid, when it is mostly empty space - however our hand cannot go through it.

And yes there is no point to that, just think about it.
