I present analytic time symmetric initial data for five dimensions describing ``bubbles of nothing'' which are asymptotically flat in the higher dimensional sense, i.e. there is no Kaluza-Klein circle asymptotically. The mass and size of these bubbles may be chosen arbitrarily and in particular the solutions contain bubbles of any size which are arbitrarily light. This suggests the solutions may be important phenomenologically and in particular I show that at low energy there are bubbles which expand outwards, suggesting a new possible instability in higher dimensions. Further, one may find bubbles of any size where the only region of high curvature is confined to an arbitrarily small volume.

Initial data for a black string and a Kaluza-Klein bubble: Space-dependent compactification radius
New analytic and numerical initial data are constructed for Kaluza-Klein spacetimes with a space-dependent compactification radius, covering black strings, naked or hidden KK bubbles, and multiple black strings.
