One of the most basic laws of quantum mechanics is the superposition principle - a system can be in more than one state, that is to say it can exist in multiple realities, at once. This phenomenon exists only until the system is observed or measured in some way way. As soon as such a system is measured, its superposition collapses into a single state. Thus, we, who are constantly observing and measuring, experience the world around us as existing in a single reality. read more
