Strange warping geometry helps to push scientific boundaries

I realize why you might perhaps think of the topic in that fashion...I can assure you it's only because you've never been exposed to the whole subject properly...the main premise involved is best depicted by a marble in a box, the example I most tend to favor...if one has a marble sealed in a box, and shakes it, one hears the marble, and knows both subjectively, as well as objectively, that it's there...QM explains why, among other things, that, even though one hears the marble, there's still a finite nonzero probability that the marble actually isn't in the box, even though one hears it...also, the thicker the walls of the box, the greater the likelihood the marble is in fact inside...at infinite thickness of the walls, the marble is then in fact trapped inside the box...look up the concept of de Broglie wavelength, to understand the basic premise of wave-particle duality, also the Bohr atom, the last classical non-QM approach, that explained a good deal of the spectral character of the hydrogen atom...the techniques used, yeah, those take years to master, however, the fundamental premise doesn't, I assure you...there are numerous other examples I could cite, however, start with those, trust me, it's not as involved as one would actually think, once explained properly, I assure you, honest....

This is what Einstein ACTUALLY won the Nobel Prize for, NOT relativity....
