Quantum is calling. It’s about your cat…

Do you remember „Anyone Can Quantum“? The epic quantum chess game between Paul Rudd and Stephen Hawking? We blogged about it here. Well, the team at Caltech’s Institute of Quantum Information and Matter and at Trouper Productions just made their second viral movie. It’s quite entertaining and maybe a little […]

From Delft’s quantum lab

This little video was made by Hannes Bernien from the Delft University of Technology. If you were curious what the workplace of a quantum physicist looks like: Here you can have a glimpse. So much up front: It’s underground, it’s dark and it makes no sense to normal human beings. […]

Beaming can kill you!

  An nerd fight rages over at YouTube. The clever explain-it-alls at C.P. Grey started it. In a charming video they explain, why teleportation as seen on television – in all Star Trek franchises, to be exact – can not work as advertised. Discussed not only on a scientific base, […]

Brian Cox explains quantum mechanics

This is Brian Cox explaining quantum mechanics in under a minute. Sure, that’s a start. But it’s a little more than that. Let’s quote Richard Feynman -famous for saying “Whoever says he understands quantum mechanics, doesn’t”. What he meant was: “The difficulty really is psychological and exists in the perpetual […]

Spooky Action At A Distance

In his book “Spooky Action at a distance” George Musser does a good job in explaining quantum physics. And he continues to do so on his website spookyactionbook.com In his latest article he explains “How Are Entangled Particles Created“. And this video helps a lot in doing so: And don’t […]

Robots: Don’t annoy them!

Well, this is really amazing. But I’m feeling insecure when the developer annoys the robot in the middle of that video. Me and my friend John Connor share the same opinion: Scientific progress has gone too far! Shut it all down! Now! 😉 And don’t forget to subscribe to our Newsletter […]

Anyone Can Quantum!

Not everybody has seen the movie “Ant-Man” from 2015. It was one of the lesser recognized features of the new Marvel Cinematics Universe. But it was solid work, sometimes funny and… rather unscientific. We could watch Paul Rudd shrink to sub-quantum-size. Yeah, I said it. Sub-Quantum-Size. Eat that, Heisenberg! Thanks […]

Scientists at the LHC are bored

And don’t forget to subscribe to our Newsletter here. quoolnews. Once a month. Now that the God-damned-particle seems to be found it is even more difficult to explain the use of the Large Hadron Collider to non-scientists. The flipside of good marketing, I guess. It did take the writers of “The Onion” to […]
