In reality, its always there
or whatever the fuck
not some orbiting sphere
in reality it is somewhere
always
they are "wave-packets"
they are everywhere on the orbit at all times
but it could be in multiple regions
because you know
thats how it works
No they are singular entities
it isnt a regular orbit
electrons are in a superposition around the nuclei
and they can teleport
soooo
I'm out, i want breakfast and just realized it's fucking 1pm already
Nothing exists in more than one place at a time, or there would be more than one of it
They're superpositioned
but you dont know where it is
is the point
Failing to know what's actually going on and defaulting to magical explanations is counterproductive
I'm reminded of the theory that there's really only one electron in existence and it just intersects with our dimension everywhere at once.
it's not necessarily that it exists in more than one place at a time, it's that it could be in all places at any given time
lol
How can it do that?
magical?
its observably true
because quantum mechanics is weird lol
No its just not understood yet
It can do that because that is one possible natural state of it's being
We're simply unsure
its observably true
quantum mechanics is the most verified field of science ever
you just dont want to admit it for whatever reason
of course, we can always learn more about any field of science, but so far quantum mechanics is the most tested to be true as we know it right now
Its more like a willingly identified illusion that an observed fact, just because you cannot track an electron, doesn't mean its in some magical state where its everywhere at once and pops into existence, it just means you cannot track it with the technology of the time
but like I said earlier, attempting to understand dark matter and dark energy is shaking our current understanding of physics
@OneTrueGod you are aware subatomic particles can spontaneously teleport yes?
