I get that it's supposed to be two realities interacting but it comes across more like two organizations gas lighting the astronauts for having inconvenient information
I think that the answer is: "Why can't it be both?" NASA and Roskosmos both seem to have been caught wiht their fingers in a very dangerous pie and are desperately trying to cover it up.
Then it sounds like (at least?) 2 diverging realities, where each one is also experiencing a gaslight/coverup type scenario. Also we seem to be implying a prior intersection (Henry/Pat)?
The Schrödinger equation is a linear partial differential equation that governs the wave function of a quantum-mechanical system.[1]: 1-2 Its discovery was a significant landmark in the development of quantum mechanics. It is named after Erwin Schrödinger, who postulated the equation in 1925 and published it in 1926, forming the basis for the work that resulted in his Nobel Prize in Physics in 1933.[2][3]
This is like the hundredth time i had to listen to a character explain the schrodingers cat. Its like the only thing writers know about science is a loose explaination of schrodingers cat. Im SO sick of it.
Schrodinger's cat as described by Schrodinger is simply using the rules and maths of quantum effects on the macro scale objects like his cat, the whole point of it is to show how ridiculous it would be to apply quantum effects to non quantum objects. ---bro used this as a sort of troll to science, yet Hollywood just takes it as if its a real and potentially natural thing to have things be quantum on a macro scale.🤣
@@tyresefarrell Bullcrap. Quote. Schrödinger's Cat is a famous thought experiment that demonstrates the idea in quantum physics that tiny particles can be in two states at once until they're observed.
I'm so glad the comments are reflecting what I was thinking. That was exhausting to watch. The twist was repetitive and starts to get annoying. Everyone's just confused. Love the suggestion of calling it "Convoluted" 😂 spot on lol
Me and my husband watched it from the beginning and won't be watching it anymore, IF it gets renewed. It's just unintelligible nonsense. It reminds me of what happened to Westworld where the writers tried to be clever from S2 and just turned it into garbage, but then accused those not liking it as not being able to 'understand' their plot!
@@troublemcallister730 Agreed. This is a late night soap opera masquerading as a SciFi series. Nothing but endless drama about infidelity, my daughter is afraid of me, and a load of interpersonal relationship minutiae that brings nothing to the story. The same thing happened to the series "Lost" about halfway thru. Turned into a nonsensical mess.
@@ferrellsl - Lost taught me a valuable lesson - don't stick with shows that jump the shark, or start out with a shark so high on meth it thinks its the moon. I bailed on Game of Thrones by S3, Westworld by S2 and won't be bothering with any more of this mess. I don't why writers think they have to be 'clever' or just, in Lost's case, write in circles with no end in sight.
Great comment. I've been watching it from the beginning and it makes my head hurt, they do such a horrible job trying to tell this story......it's a mess.
For an astrophysicist, it's taking her a long time to realize she's stuck between different possibilities. I mean, ffs you can't chalk up your daughter not understanding Swedish to "I guess I remembered wrong". There's so much evidence and she just can't suspend her disbelief🤦♂️.
Good grief, convoluted is too nice a word to describe the plot of this tripe. It's as if the writers had ADHD and someone let a cage of squirrels loose in the room.
The dead Russian floating through space is legit...sort of. Allegedly, the Soviet Union sent a female in to space well before the US went to the moon. Supposedly, there was an incident that caused the Soviet Female to drift off and away in space, though I cannot recall if that was while inside her craft, or outside of it. There was also some one or some ones who were able to hear her radio transmissions. I do not recall if they managed to record them. As this was the Cold War, it was imperative the the USSR not show failure in anything, so, like other failures, they tried sweep this under the rug. I have no clue if this actually happened, but it is a conspiracy theory that's alive and well and seemed to make an appearance in this show.
There are many scenes in film with russian text. And in scene with soviet emergency radio transmission we see transcription of female cosmonaut`s calling for help. But there is one "but". There is real audio record and people who speaks russian fluently can say that this record is fake. There is no cosmonauts abandoned at orbit. It was Cold War and propaganda told about evil communists. P.S. Sorry for bad english.
So the daughter is the true schrodinger's cat. She observed the test via the live stream and is able to exist in both realities as long as A: she's not seen, and or B looking at herself. The old guy, who was alone when he performed his own experiment the first time ten years prior is also a Schrodinger's cat, The difference between them is that while he has full control over his newfound ability to interact with two realities, the daughter doesn't. The power/new form of matter doesn't want to be controlled however and is breaking both realities in an attempt to be freed from the doctor's control.
That was Nels Bohr who had a debate with Einstein, who was the pioneer behind classical Physics. Bohr was the Danish scientist who laid the foundation for Quantum physics.
This has the same general feel of a movie from the 1970s by Gerry "Thunderbirds" Anderson called Doppelganger. That film is about a mirror Earth on the other side of the sun where familiar faces are unfamiliar and history takes divergent paths.
At 13:45 into this, I am seeing it as, whenever someone is going to make a decision, a branch is created where they make that choice and one where they do not, and this seems to be intertwined into every single person on the planet. Everyone's interactions are fragmented, creating parallel universes, upon parallel universes, upon parallel universes. We usually stop this thought experiment with one participant in mind, (it would be easier to write a story that way anyway), but this takes all possibilities into immediate consideration.
I've come to disagree with this view of reality. I find that there are no branches tied to choices - a sepcific set of circumstances always leads to a specific choice. It is only in hindsight that a hypothetical branch, a "we could have done something else" appears. Many people interpret time as a road with branching choice-paths but I see it as a road that is being built through a foggy landscape: When you hit an obstacle, you will always make one choice to go around or over the obstacle, based on your limited view of what seems to be ahead. If you look back you will see points where a different path would have made sense but there will always be only one road.
Ironically, your comment exists in two different states at the same time, in that it’s both correct AND incorrect. Correct he did not discover it, but incorrect in that he didn’t mess with quantum theory. He did….a lot. He just didn’t believe it, nor believe it to be useful. He called quantum entanglement “spooky action at a distance”
@@Steve-xh3lc Define "mess with". And explain what is exactly "a lot". Einstein is all about Relativity and trying (and failing) to disprove Quantum Mechanics. The asertion I pointed in the video is TOTALLY wrong, even conceptually.
As I understand it, Einstein did not like quantum mechanics. I believe there is a quote of him saying "God does not play dice with the universe", referring to the probabilistic nature of quantum mechanics.
I was offered lithium once...and I told the doctor he can prescribe whatever he wants, but I will never take anything that sounds like just eating a battery. 😂
@@superpunkin93 i thought those episodes were pretty good. i got 1:45 seconds into this video and then watched most of it. this was a day well spent in my opinion.
A show that focuses on a topic normally creates a bad show, get a topic like this then put it on the background. You dont have to explain it to us esp if you dont understand it urself. Just circle around it, tease us. That makes an interesting show. A show that respects its audience
its cool but wouldnt happen. iss is kept at such an altitude as to where it is just barely in earths atmosphere, requiring slight adjustment from rcs boosters to keep it from dropping too low or losing too much speed. this is to ensure that any debris that might possibly hit the station will slow down and eventually decend fully into and burn up in the thicker part of the atmosphere
NASA used the Russian made rockets for decades since they were more cheaper and reliable then theirs. If you didn't get Elon Musk to revolutionize your space program you would still use them. I'm still waiting for American hypersonic missiles. How many more years before you manage to make them, 20, 30? XD
Usually these recaps take a disjointed movie plot and distill it into an understandable condensed version. But when even the recap itself is convoluted and hard to follow...Wow! What must the series be like. Helping an audience to identify with the plights of the protagonists is helpful and appreciated. But I don't want to *actually* become disoriented attempting to understand what I am watching!
I wrote a short story that I called "Schrodinger's Catastrophe". In mv story these unethical scientists used a live cat to do the actual thought experiment. A few of them object and leave to notify the authorities. The experiment worked in that it proved their cat was both dead and alive, but something goes wrong. The box is damaged and it seems the cat has escaped into the lab. They find it, but it attacks, badly scratching some of the scientists. They start complaining that it's too hot, then they're burning, then they're in intense pain writhing on the ground. Then they go silent! One of them gets up, looks confused and emotionless. Another scientist walks to him and asks if he's okay. With cold eyes the injured scientist looks at him and takes a bite out of his neck, killing him in seconds. Then the others rise, and start attacking. The surviving scientists manage to lock them up in a clean room. Just then the cops come burst into the room along with the other scientists that had left to call them. They bear witness to the horror of what happened, confused about it. The dead cop gets up! Then the CAT hisses, scratches a few cops and scientists before ESCAPING into the world. One of the injured cops starts complaining that it's getting hot in that room. Schrodinger's Catastrophe has kicked off the Zombie Apocalypse! 😱
Amputation in zero g is a death sentence especially as its being done to a crushed hand/arm meaning internal bleeding that cant be stopped in zero g with out some sort of human sized centrifuge
As I watched the show, I kept waiting for either Jo or Paul to have that moment of clarity and understanding that they had gotten entangled between two realities. Unfortunately, it seems the writers don't understand the science that they are trying to portray.
No Mike comments?? Let me correct this: Good to see Mike going undercover in mission command after faking death, such a jack of all trades! Officer, security, hitman, parking attendant, dealer, great granddad and father in law, friend, worst enemy, scientist. Unbelievable!
I’m, kind of tired of people seemingly misrepresenting quantum mechanics and Schrodinger’s cat. As I understand it, the object in question IS of one state, but it’s an unknown state. The problem with quantum stuff is if you try to observe a thing, it changes the thing, like if you tried to take a picture of a city, but the only light source you could provide was a nuke. The city exists, things happen, always changing, then you take a picture, and boom, now it’s all,,,, different, then when you took the photo. It’s not that weird.
If it was akin to schrodinger's cat...everyone on earth would have to maintain eye contact on each other because the moment someone isn't being seen by anyone, they no longer exist. That's the entire rule of the observer in schrodinger's cat, Nothing exists until we observe it.
Wasn't the thing about the Schrodinger Cat that it was both Dead & Alive at the same time? That it was all possibilities overlapped until the obeserver make all other possibilities except one collapse?
@@KC-rt4hp Chinese space station is much more spacious, cleaner, well built and organized than ISS (as it took lesson from ISS and improved). The movie space station looks like that. This is what I meant. Bursting into flame and other things are just Hollywood drama. They can't make a malfunction story without those, lol!
@@aniksamiurrahman6365Chinese space station won’t even be able to launch few feet above the ground without bursting into flames, that’s why they are chinese made
I think the biggest joke about his cat is that he was trying to use it as an example of why quantum mechanics are bs but after it was proven real it’s used to explain how quantum mechanics work to people who have no understanding of it
It's a great tragedy that neither the filmmakers, nor 95% of the commentors actually know that Schrödinger's cat was never meant seriously. It was just making fun of the whole concept of things being in 2 states at once. They are not. They are never.
It's like some psychopath want to put all worlds into a revolver and decide to play Russian Roulette every night, you wake up in a different reality every time.
This reminds me too much of Twilight Zone. I really don't believe in Multiverse. Science has not yet discovered what really happens in the quantum world. What people cannot yet comprehend quickly becomes a fantasy. It's like saying you talked to Donald Duck yesterday. But for a film scenario such a story is always great!
Schrodingers cat is the theory that all cats, everywhere, are actually just 1 cat, moving at ftl speeds, similar to gaining access to the cat force, the real life speed force, capable of being in all places at once. And the day it finds a 2nd cat, their battle will unleash satan, heavens angels, aliens, eldritch creatures, and cosmic entities, culminating in the war for the heavyweight championship of the multiverse. There can only be 1 victor. Tune in. Ppv only.
'They don't believe her because there have been no reports of missing Russian astronauts' Yes, because Russia is completely and totally open about all their mistakes.
Their car being red really threw me, having a red car automatically makes your insurance higher, surely someone smart enough to be on the ISS wouldn't pick a red car.
It’s an interesting concept for sure but I think the dualism part is the part that I both love and hate the most. Why would reality be subsequently split into two equal parallels that sometimes overlapped with each other? Wouldn’t there be like an infinite number of possibilities therefore a myriad of Jos and Paul’s all witnessing each other at different crossroads
In 2018 scientists did that exact experiment of imaging a quantum leap called "How to catch and reverse the quantum jump mid flight". And last year they imaged entangled states of particles. Of course none of these crazy movie stuff happened.
Noomi Rapace with 2 alien films under her belt lol and Jonathan Banks with another sad grandpa role under his haha!. Also, two "What ifs" conjoining timeline of events... big mind fuq!
So what actually happens? The two astnonauts are stuck between realities, seeing into different possibiblities? It seems like they might be trapped in the oposite reality that they came from? Am i missing something? It seems to go nowhere, and doesnt explain why they are doing these experiments or what it means, other than to litterally say, schrodingers cat does indeed exist.
