At the very small, quantum predictions challenge our best understanding about the nature of space and time, what we know as Einstein's theory of relativity.The implications of quantum theory have been troubling since it was invented in the early 20th Century. The problem is that quantum theory predicts bizarre behavior for particles, such as two 'entangled' particles behaving as one even when far apart. This seems to violate our sense of cause and effect in space and time. Physicists call such behavior 'nonlocal'. read more
