Even scientists can't explain atoms potential to be in many places at once

Atoms 99.99999999% nothing 

Humanity could fit into the size of a sugar cube

Atom democratis Ancient Greek

Daniel benoli atoms in gas, atoms can not be observed but can be observed indirectly. Perpetual frenzied motion. The existence of pressure in gas when contained, mental picture to suggest atoms and movement Robert Boyle observation of this

Botanist, Australia trip, found the neucleus cell but more significantly observed.

Brownian motion

Constant random movement

Brown did not solve Brownian motion had to wait to be explained by Einstein 1905. 80 years later. Theory of relativity and solved Brownian motion! (Find einstien quote)

Jean baptiste perren gum resin deduced the size of atoms. 

Atom biosphere, Death recycles atoms, body rot, soil, plant, eaten, digested die, cycle.

Stm microscope, electron microscope. Artificial sense of touch.

The images of science, moon landin, DNa SMT atom. Reveal truth of the world.

Everything is made of atoms. Feynman 

atoms are made of smaller parts

Atom like a solar system image

Happard Stoppard play

Atom emptiness quote.

Light duality wave and particle 

Light is something we are unable to understand it as it is so different to our understanding of reality

In the microscopic world identical things don't behave in identical ways, but only have the chance of behaving in a particulaur way. The potential of a proton behaving in the same way is total random chance. This is fundamental.

Prediction is only probable

Physics pre1900 allowed prediction with absolute certainty, post nothing is knowable with absolute certainty. 

"Science has given up on the problem of trying to predict what would happen in a given circumstance, we can only predict the odds."

Richard Feynman.

"God does plays dice with universe and throws them where we cannot see them." 

Stephen hawking. 

Causality the action annd it's potential out come

Light particles are informed by light waves and waves behave like particles, perfect symmetry. 95% arrival 5% deflection. 

Schroedingers wave equation

Waves

Superposition

Hugh Everett 3 

David doitch Oxford uni

"The fabric of reality"

A superposition is destroyed or severely degraded by the environment. Even observing destroys it. 

"It is almost as if quantum superposition a are a secret, once the world knows about the secret, the secret no longer exists."

Decoherence, the quantum world different to the everyday world

The Heisenberg uncertainty principle shows that we are unable to describe a thing absolutely.
