    The problem with quantum mechanics, or at least the reason even physicists don’t understand it, isn’t that it paints an unfamiliar picture of reality. It isn’t difficult to accept that the world of fundamental particles, of which we have no direct experience, is radically different to the world we perceive. The problem is instead that it doesn’t portray the hinterlands between these two worlds, offering no clear outline of how one emerges from the other.

    Supermassive black holes are, as you might expect, rather large – millions and sometimes billions of times as massive as the sun. They lurk at the centre of all large galaxies, including our Milky Way, shaping the growth of these cosmic structures. And yet we can say precious little for certain about how they form and why they grow so big.

    A primera vista, sugerir que nosotros creamos la realidad suena a una mezcla de arrogancia y absurdo. ¿En qué retorcida versión de la misma podría existir únicamente por nuestra causa? Y, sin embargo, si uno dedica algo de tiempo a reflexionar sobre la teoría cuántica —nuestra descripción más precisa de lo que existe en sus aspectos más fundamentales—, es difícil eludir la idea de que el mundo se vuelve real solo cuando lo observamos.

Hi @Emma_Marris. I'm trying to get a proof over to you in the absence of my colleague Kate Douglas but I don't seem to have the right email address. Could you please drop me a line asap: [email protected]? Thanks

Hey @TheTiffinTin. The discount code you posted on Twitter 4 hours ago doesn't work and the staff at the Wanstead branch said they can't honour it over the phone.
