What does this bring to mind?

Question

the fact that an atom only appears in a particular place if you measure it, in other words an atom is spread out all over the place until a conscious observer decides to look at it. Isn't this amazing?

Answer 1

not realy amazing.. maybe because i dont care  

Answer 2

Yes it is! I am taking biology class in the 10th grade and I love it! I think it is so cool how the human body works!

Answer 3

no that really is amazing. in all seriousness its one of the most amazing things ever. how long did we keep measuring before we realized that we were actually affecting it by observing it. that says a lot about our perception of the world and the unconscious effects we have on it.

Answer 4

Looks like Charles Manson

Answer 5

I think you are misunderstanding some fairly interesting aspects of quantum mechanics.    I would concentrate on getting a decent education in physics or even chemistry from an accredited university before continuing to expound on nonsense.   I assure you that atoms are not in the least concerned about whether you are watching or measuring them or not.  All you are talking about is the limitations of our abilities to measure at a quantum level, which is actually smaller than the size of an atom.

Answer 6

get a hobby!

Answer 7

Is this a parallel universe thing?

Answer 8

whats more amazing is a peanut is neither a pea or a nut

Answer 9

It brings to mind the theory that humans are just atoms (think 2 hydrogens fusing into a helium as the same as two humans fusing into a marriage).

It brings to mind that maybe the universe is just a simple atom in a whole other vast expanse.  

Answer 10

Quite Amazing.
