Astronomical and astrophysical data indicate the presence in surrounding space of the dark matter, which needs to explain the observed dynamics of Galaxies in the framework of Newtonian mechanics and also to solve the problems of the gravity and the stationarity of the Universe. This dark matter with its assessed very low density (~10-29 g/cm3) is main part of the matter in the Universe, because its mass is ~10 times greater than the mass of all visible cosmic bodies. It is clear that namely the properties of dark matter, which fills the real space, must determine the physical properties of space and, therefore, the fundamental physical laws, which take place in the nature.

Indeed, using known properties of the cosmic microwave radiation, the energy of which amounts to ~90% of total energy for all measured cosmic radiation, and using logical assumption that this radiation is produced by motion of dark matter, it can be shown that the conservation laws of classical physics and the principles of quantum mechanics receive their materialistic basis. For example, high homogeneity and isotropy (~10-4) of this radiation indicate the same properties of dark matter and, consequently, the same properties of real space filled by this matter, what according to known mathematical theorems of E. Noether justifies the applicability of conservation laws of momentum and angular momentum, correspondingly. Moreover, the fact that this radiation has a spectrum of the black body (at temperature ~2.7 K) and has a maximum at the wavelength ~1.9x10-3 m allows determine the value of mechanical action produced by corresponding oscillatory motion of dark matter. The value obtained corresponds well to Planck's constant (6.6x10-34 J⋅s), which, in essence, is the mechanical action, what gives materialistic justification to the Heisenberg's uncertainty principle and to other concepts of quantum mechanics.

As regards to the physical meaning of the concept "time", it was introduced, as well known, by man mind to describe the dynamics of observed processes taking place in the nature. And, as it's also well known, the concept "time" is used solely for comparative description of these processes, because for that one of these processes is used as a "reference clock". So, it's not wonder that, as they say, everything is relative and everything is coming to know by comparison. Therefore, such use of the concept "time" is no doubt reasonable and effective.

Thus, as is obvious, in the nature occur a variety of processes involving matter, behavior of which corresponds well to known fundamental laws of physics (classical and quantum) since these laws are determined by observed properties of dark matter filling all space. Therefore, real space is material, being filled by dark matter, and has high homogeneity and isotropy for the large scale, but for enough small scale this material space exhibits equilibrium seesaw motion at ~2.7 K. As regards the concept "time", a reasonable understanding is true, that actually in the nature there is no "time". Such understanding let solve logically the old problem of "arrow of time" (no real "time" - no problem) and also indicates that the use of four-dimensional space-time representation requires a definite accuracy, because the coordinate "time" does not really exist.

Keywords: actual properties of space, microwave background radiation, dark matter, fundamental laws of classical and quantum physics, Planck's constant, Neter's theorems, relativity principle, concept of time, arrow of time.
