What is quantum physics, and why does it seem so strange?
In this beginner-friendly episode of Explain It Like I’m 5, we break down the basics of quantum mechanics in plain English, no equations, just clear explanations.
Learn about superposition, wave-particle duality, quantum entanglement, the observer effect, and Schrödinger’s famous cat thought experiment.
Host Alex explores why the quantum world defies common sense, how it powers real-world tech like lasers, GPS, and quantum computers, and why even scientists admit it’s still baffling.
If you’ve ever wondered how particles can be in two places at once or why “just looking” changes reality, this is the simple, fun introduction to quantum physics you’ve been looking for.
