I will show that the massless irreducible representations of the Poincare group are precisely Corrolian field living on I^+. I will also show that the analogous massless irreducible representation of E11 are just the degrees of freedom of maximal supergravity. Finally I will speculate how spacetime could emerge from an underlying fundamental theory.
