This video is amazing

So as I was researching the Double Slit experiment, I came across a video that was very intriguing.  Though the video is in a cartoon, it explains the topic so well that I need to find a way to incorporate this video. I will post a link to the video so you guys can decide for yourself if you want to divulge in the world of quantum mechanics.

Breaking Bad with Heisenberg

I feel that this title works perfectly with the topic that I will discuss today. In physics as well as chemistry there is a theory called the Heisenberg Uncertainty theory. To not bore you, I will explain in the simplest terms. Basically, this theory states that you cannot determine both the position and velocity of a subatomic particle because the object moves around to quickly. This will prove to be important within aspects of the wave particle duality.

Got some big news

As the US takes a grand step into the future with Orion's successful voyage. I have also been able to take one more step into my project. I was able to talk to a professor from the University of Pittsburgh about quantum physics. He was able to fax me some information. Now that I am in contact with him I might be able to setup an interview. Let's keep our fingers crossed!

Here is another topic of quantum physics that will blow your mind. Which can lead to the idea of parallel universes!
