Kabir Says –
“Ads Privacy, well being and a quantum particle walk into a bar. Privacy orders all the cookies in the house, well being asks for a salad and the quantum particle is unable to order, because it’s in a to-observe-or-not-to-observe state”

SCIENCE
Bizzareness of Quantum Physics
In the strange world of quantum physics particles seem to pop in and out of existence, they are connected across vast distances in space-time and behave in inexplicable ways. But despite the strangeness of quantum physics, this field of study and it’s applications are ubiquitous. From creating a secure communication network to birds being able to see the Earth’s magnetic field are just a few of the mind-bending points that Neil deGrasse Tyson explores in his fascinating video on quantum physics.
Tyson reveals the foundational role of quantum mechanics in modern technologies, showcasing its applications in lasers, secure communication networks and even bird navigation using Earth’s magnetic field. Through straightforward analogies and thought experiments he makes the intricate world of quantum physics comprehensible and engaging. This video is a must-watch for anyone curious about the bizarre yet essential principles that underlie many technological advancements and our understanding of the universe.
