Sign Up on Patreon to get access to the Space Time Discord! https://www.patreon.com/pbsspacetime Spend two hours exploring the strange, counterintuitive world of quantum mechanics, where particles can exist in multiple states, reality becomes uncertain, and observation itself seems to matter. We’ll break down some of the biggest ideas in quantum physics: from wave functions and superposition to entanglement, uncertainty, and the nature of measurement. By the end, you may not completely understand quantum mechanics: but you’ll understand why nobody else completely does either.
