gardega explains the atom and reality

There is something in physics called "the measurement problem." If you want an insight to the strangeness of reality-- I will explain this to you.

Here it is:

an atom ONLY appears in a particular place if you measure it. In other words, an atom is spread out infinitely until a conscious observer decides to look at it.

so the act of observation (or measurement) creates the entire the universe. This is an insane idea but it is true idea.
