If you observed a bunch of atoms. Lets say an icecube..
If we would stop the time so there is just a now would the icecube then be
99.99999% empty space/other medium?

The ratio of matter to empty space for an *isolated* ice cube is
not time dependent. In a realistic environment, the ice cube will
interacted with the rest of the universe and will change over
time.

Ok..But if we think of time as something in our mind. Some would say the
icecube is not 99.99999% empty space but filled with probabilities. But in
the NOW with no time passing?

It would look the same. Energy is conserved.
"probabilities" is just a mathematical concept, doesn't "fill" anything.

But in the NOW with no time passing you don't know how big the ice cube is.
If I've undersyood correctly the smaller the NOW the larger the icecube and
the harder it is to calculate a %.

If the photon is a bug the electron is a baseball 30 miles from the
nuerton that is a train orbiting the wall of a pit.
That atom would be 60 miles wide and if you parked evrything you could
put thee photon and electron in the glove box and 7 trucks would sit in
the dark in a box 60 miles wide.
