inertans

Inertans are a term used in fringe theories and speculative fiction to denote a hypothetical class of non-physical or extradimensional beings. Descriptions vary, but they are commonly portrayed as intelligent entities associated with energy, consciousness, or the fabric of reality, rather than with physical bodies in the usual sense. Some proponents describe inertans as existing in higher dimensions or as part of the underlying structure of inertia.

The concept lacks a standard definition and does not appear in established scientific literature. It has appeared in online communities, self-published writings, and certain conspiracy or New Age circles, where authors hint at interactions with inertans or knowledge imparted by them. There is no consensus on their nature, origin, or existence.

Proponents may claim inertans influence physical processes, perception, or human consciousness, sometimes linking them with energy flows or metaphysical theory. Critics describe the idea as speculative or unfalsifiable, and point out that there is no empirical evidence or credible peer-reviewed research to support such claims.

In fiction, inertans appear as alien or non-human intelligences, often used to explore themes of reality, perception, and the boundaries between science and mysticism. They have appeared in certain novels, role-playing games, or online narratives but remain outside mainstream science.

As a result, inertans are considered a fringe concept rather than an established scientific or historical term.
