FlashForward S01E06
Date: 2009 Duration: 1:39 min. Medium: Video Created by: Brannon Braga David S. Goyer Genre: Drama Description: Simon references Schrödinger's Cat as he is trying to explain why the blackouts happened. He describes it using the metaphor of holding a tiny cat in a closed hand with a poisoned sardine. If the cat eats the sardine, he will die; if not, he will live. But the outcome will be unknown until the hand is opened. Until then, the cat may be both alive and dead simultaneously, with reality ultimately being decided upon the intrusion of an observer. |
