I Know Lots of Useless Information

How "Fast" is the Speed of Light?

Light travels at a constant, finite speed of 186,000 mi/sec. A traveler, moving at the speed of light, would circum-navigate the equator approximately 7.5 times in one second.

Now ask about Heisenberg's principal or quantum tunneling. 😉

I know of Heisenberg. He was on Breaking Bad. Right? He cooked Meth.

@SimplyTracie: lol! That is one of my favorite.shows. But sadly no. It speaks to the degree of certainty that a particle (such as an electron) can be precisely located in quantum physics. It's basically 90%. If you lived in a quantum world, you would be fuzzy looking, fading in and out of view. 😜

I am not sure if Heisenberg is here or not... tough to tell until I see him; or not.

So as you can see...engineers are nice but weird people. 🙃

@Living-wellish: Yup.. smart and clever.. but odd, in a good way. Kinda like quantum entanglement - kinda in two places at once, you know..?

See ya. 😝

@SimplyTracie: See me now, or later.. ;)

@SoggedNapped: Darn. I missed that. I was gonna say that. 😞

@SimplyTracie: You still can, there's time...
