Mass occupies three dimensional space.

No two masses can occupy the same point in three dimensional space
simultaneously.

That's not to say two objects with mass cannot occupy the same amount
of three dimensional space simultaneously because all objects, except
a black hole, contain aether.

And if two objects interact in such a way that they occupy the same
amount of three dimensional space then that means the objects are
twice as dense and displacing twice the aether.
