can you dig this?
These experimenters have come to the conclusion that reality doesn’t exist until you look at it. The most famous evidence in support of this is the quantum entanglement experiment. Here is some more background from the studies at Australian National University:
Quantum laws tend to contradict common sense. At that level, one thing can be two different things simultaneously and be at two different places at the same time. Two particles can be entangled and, when one changes its state, the other will also do so immediately, even if they are at opposite ends of the universe – seemingly acting faster than the speed of light.
Particles can also tunnel through solid objects, which should normally be impenetrable barriers, like a ghost passing through a wall. And now scientists have proven that, what is happening to a particle now, isn’t governed by what has happened to it in the past, but by what state it is in the future – effectively meaning that, at a subatomic level, time can go backwards.
And are you familiar with the other aspect of the double slit experiment. Light can be considered to be a particle and a wave. There is a pretty cool demonstration of this by youtber veritasium.
Ok are you ready to have your mind completely blown or what?
Let’s find out how this is possible and check out a cool video on page 2

We do come from all the same stuff. Ever heard the rumor about Einstein making ships appear across miles of space small models but ships none the less.
So if I close my eyes and walk towards my bed it won’t be there?
Look up the double slit experiment…there are some great videos with illustrations that really lets you grasp it. It’s almost like playing super Mario Brothers where you have endless options, but the option that you choose is the option that you see.
Uh, So if I close my eyes and walk towards my bed it won’t be there?
Dave, do you have a link???

Exactly what we’d expect from a computer simulation
When you are conscious your 5 senses are constantly measuring and calculating reality, when your asleep they do not 🙂

this is 100% allowable due to the nature of quantum mechanics, i think the deeper question is what is observation. in QM there is no true definition atleast in my studys. now an easier way to understand this is with schrodingers cat. the common thing that people forget/ dont know about schrodingers cat is that after you open the box you can close it and the superposition of alive and dead is once more a reality.
no no you must remember that QM is only on a small scale. so your bed is still there. we also must find a proper definition of what observation is.
The transition from a particle to wave-like is the oscillation (vibration and frequency) of the vibrating photon particle itself. At what stage of the manifestation occurs is subjected to further studies and experimentations.
Why do they call it quantum entanglement? Because you get so tangled-up trying to figure out all the equations that you basically meet yourself coming and going. LOL!
This is very interesting, but how are they able to check the quantum state of the partner particle from millions of miles, or billions of light years away, to confirm this behavior, and to confirm that the link still exists from these vast distances?

Crazy stuff. I hope I’m alive to see a unifying theory confirmed from all these areas of physics. And I hope there is someone who can explain it to me lol.
Jared Bourne get Aaron drunk enough and he’ll tell you all about it.
I discovered a new particle called a Chandlerpod. It appears at cookout and fuel at the same time.
It was discovered at Buckhead. Probably when you box jumped on their speakers.
Cute!
(Response to John kurilko comment)
I am no physicist, but I think I have an idea how Quantum entanglement might work. If the fabric of space-time were thought of as consciousness, there would be no need for faster than light travel. All empty space, (space-time) is connected directly to all other empty space. What we perceive as solid or having mass is actually much more empty space than it is solid. If space-time is “awareness” then there is no need for information to travel at all, it is omnipresent within all space-time. Kind of like a thought in your brain, electrochemical actions happen to produce the thought but the thought itself is physically formlees and cannot be observed in any single location or time.
