Schrödinger's Cat

|Superposition⟩
😺 Alive: 50%
💀 Dead: 50%

Schrödinger's Cat

A thought experiment illustrating quantum superposition at a macroscopic scale. The cat in a closed box exists in a superposition of alive and dead states until observed.

The Paradox: According to quantum mechanics, until we open the box and measure, the cat is simultaneously both alive AND dead. Opening the box collapses the superposition to one definite state. Does observation really create reality?
