  October 5, 2023 Adam Frank Big Think

  The perfectly accessible, perfectly knowable Universe of classical physics is gone forever, no matter what interpretation you choose.

• How quantum uncertainty saved the atom

  October 5, 2023 Ethan Siegel Big Think

  If nature were perfectly deterministic, atoms would almost instantly all collapse. Here's how Heisenberg uncertainty saves the atom.
