Just a quick heads up!

According to the Copenhagen interpretation, an electron is both a wave and a
particle, but also neither of the two and never both at the same time.

Always a fun evening whenever Physics Explained uploads a new video (and re-uploads once or twice for minor corrections... I think we got the final version now). This time it's about Heisenberg's uncertainty principle and we randomly perform a Fourier transformation, solve the time-independent wave function, and use Taylor to get the full solution. youtu.be/FRP4AqZR3UU

Quantum weirdness is opening new doors for electron microscopes, powerful tools used for high-resolution imaging.

Split an electron like a wave, send it past a sample, record which slit it came back in from and measure its properties, , and you have yourself an image.
I always marvel at things like this. Very impressive.
