I still don't understand the Double-Slit experiment no matter how people explain it to me. I just know that it's not that conciousness has anything to do with reality.
Damn this is cool. Anybody know the largest/macro model of the double slit experiment that’s ever been done?
- Not sure about the double slit experiment specifically, but wave-particle duality has been observed with molecules as large as buckminsterfullerene.

  Ooo thank you
