Ahh, the good ol Schrodinger’s Cat thought experiment. One of the weirdest, and best! For my money, this just shows that the Copenhagen interpretation isn’t really a very plausible interpretation of Quantum Mechanics… but then again, I’m no physicist.
Also, as you can see in the News post below, go vote for the comic now, and you can see an excellent little bonus comic! Enjoy!
OH GOD NO! NOT ZOMBIE CATS!
Every time one of my physics nerd friends explains the Schrodinger’s Cat paradox to me, I think “Of course! NOW I understand.” Then I forget it again, so that I can’t actually explain it to anyone. My brain apparently just can’t hold it. So any zombie cats out there that want to eat my brain, FORGET IT! It won’t do you any good. It’s defective. It’s just not worth it. OK? Good.
