The Quantum Century: Celebrating 100 Years of Quantum Mechanics

The Quantum Century
Can you believe it’s been 100 years since quantum mechanics flipped our understanding of reality on its head? In this episode of The Nerd Werk Nexus, we take you on a journey from the strange experiments of the 1920s to the technologies that power our world today—think lasers, MRI machines, and quantum computers.

We cover:
⚛️ How Planck, Heisenberg, and Schrödinger rewrote the rules of physics
🌀 The mind-bending double slit experiment
🤯 Einstein’s quantum beef (yes, really)
🔬 And why quantum weirdness still shapes your daily life

If you’ve ever wondered how “spooky action at a distance” became science fact, or what vibrating strings have to do with the nature of time—this one’s for you.

📡 Tune in and take the quantum leap with us!
