Uncertainty Principle


we can know the path an electron takes as it moves through a space,
or we can know where it is at a given instant,
but we cannot know both.

What this means in practice is that you can never predict where an electron will be at any given moment.

You can only list its probability of being there.

In a sense, an electron doesn’t exist until it is observed.

Or, put slightly differently, until it is observed an electron must be regarded as being “at once everywhere and nowhere."

also fascinating.

these make you wonder, what's human, what's love, what's everything..
are human as substantial as they looks like?
could feelings have a shape?

Exclusion Principle


the subatomic particles in certain pairs, even when separated by the most considerable distances, can each instantly “know” what the other is doing.

Particles have a quality known as spin and, according to quantum theory, the moment you determine the spin of one particle, its sister particle, no matter how distant away, will immediately begin spinning in the opposite direction and at the same rate.

fascinating.
