Reflections on Uncertainty
Uncertainty states that the more precisely the position of some particle is determined, the less precisely its momentum can be known, and vice versa. On this level of thinking you really do not know the outcome of an event based on what you have to begin with. There is no liner thinking, that one event can lead to the other, but rather that one event may lead to a variety of different outcomes. For some people this can cause disruption and feelings of uncomfortableness, but others seem not to be bothered by the unknown or various effects.
I suppose this could be difficult in the scientific lab setting.
Causality in this context relates to cause and effect. in classical physics effect follows cause. Einstein argued that effect does not always have to follow cause, and that effect cannot travel faster than the speed of light or cannot travel backwards in time. If we could travel back in time then we would see that effects influence cause more often. I wish people could take this into consideration with the way of our environmental world.
Is the universe weird?
Yeah I think so, in the best possible way. So many unknown factors and happenings beyond my imagination. Weird is an expression of uniqueness and mystery.
