Anyone ever study or look in to "Spooky Action at a Distance?"
Here's a summary link:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Action_at_a_distance_(physics)I always thought it was interesting. Especially "how an object could "know" the mass (in the case of gravity) or charge (in electromagnetism) of another distant object."
This is my first post so I hope I'm doing it right. "Spooky action at a distance" is, I believe, a symptom of the holographic universe (see Wikipedia if you've never heard of it). The underlying theory is that there are subatomic waves which generate both "spooky" particles. A good analogy is seen in electron energy levels. Electrons are seen in one energy shell or another, but never traveling the distance between, even when electrons "jump" levels. The reason is that electrons are not indivisible particles; they are formed by the convergence of waves. So "explicit" electrons can only exist within shells in atoms, because those shells are where the "implicit" waves come together. Any electron jumping an energy level is tunneling since it doesn't travel that distance between shells. This is the same "behind-the-scenes" principle that creates other spooky actions. Einstein called it "spooky" because he denied quantum physics.
