Abstract

In this paper we modify Einstein’s field equations, and write down the cosmological term and the metric tensor as an energy momentum tensor of space-time,and interpret space-time as a form of energy, not vacuum energy as such.The energy momentum tensor of space-time has equivalents of both mass and pressure components.The acceleration of the universe, Dark Energy and Dark Matter are explained in terms of the energy momentum tensor of space-time.
