The Observer Effect

It is well known that all matter in the known universe is fundamentally made up of positive, neutral and negatively charged particles. We find these protons, electrons and neutrons when we magnify matter, 100 picometers, and observe atoms. This is the energy that makes up the entirety of the universe.

  If you are not familiar with the physics of the quantum world, then it can quickly become awe inspiring when you are confronted with the information. For example, the concept of quantum entanglement. The fact that a single atom can exist in two places at one time within the universe. But something that is even more riveting than that is the "Observer Effect".

  We find the most interesting example of this in the famous "Double-Slit Experiment". On February 26, 1998, researchers of the Condensed Matter Physics Department conducted an experiment in a highly controlled environment. The team, lead by Prof. Mordehai Heiblum worked at the institutes Joseph H. and Belle R. Braun's Center for Submicron Research.

  When not being observed, particles can act as waves. When behaving as waves, particles can pass through a barrier and re-solidify on the opposite side. This is called "Interference". The interesting thing, is that interference can only happen when not being observed. This was revealed in the Double-Slit Experiment.

  The Scientists built a tiny device that was less than one micron, in size. The device had a barrier with two openings in which, the scientists fired a small beam of electrons through. Then spotted passing electrons using a small, but sophisticated electron detector. The results, astounding as they may, were as obvious as simple math. The researchers found that, while observed, the electrons did not experience interference. Even more interesting, the amount of observation, affected the amount of interference. Less observation, meant more interference. But there was another variable. One that struck the researchers as most chilling. While conducting the experiment, the scientists found, that, even in the presence of an objective observer. An apparatus, such as a camera would have the same effects as the human eye. Its as if the particles were aware that they are being observed, either by the object, or in the future when humans observe the footage.

So, what does this mean? When an object is not being observed, its particles can act as waves, contrary to a solid. This is very revealing of the nature of our reality and how connected the universe is, but also bears many more questions. If electrons act this way when observed, What kind of effect does thought have on our physical reality?

We will dig deeper into many of these questions, I will present evidence in support of the Universal Consciousness. Revealing ancient principles and oral stories that teach of this spiritual force. How is the nature of quantum physics relative to religion and human spirituality? Join me in the conversation. Please comment and share our platform. I say our, because this platform is for you.
