The preordained quantum Universe

The laws of quantum mechanics give only the probabilities of outcomes, which can be illustrated with the thought experiment devised by Austrian physicist Erwin Schrôdinger in 1935 (although when he devised it, he was concerned mainly with howthe wavefunction represents reality).

description The laws of quantum mechanics give only the probabilities of outcomes, which can be illustrated with the thought experiment devised by Austrian physicist Erwin Schrôdinger in 1935 (although when he devised it, he was concerned mainly with howthe wavefunction represents reality). [...]the laws do not provide an upper bound on how much an object can be accelerated, so in theory a classical object can reach spatial infinity in finite time. In practice, this problem is solved by the universal speed limit, the speed of light, introduced by Einstein's special theory of relativity. A theory that specifies deterministic laws of both the Universe's temporal evolution and its exact initial condition satisfies what English physicist Roger Penrose called 'strong determinism' in his 1989 book The Emperor's New Mind.
