Quarks, bosons, and leptons. Yep, you read that right. Those are just a few of the terms we cover in this week’s fascinating Creation Today show, “Quantum Physics.” I know, I know, try to contain your excitement!
But seriously, this show is amazing! Dr. Jason Lisle joined me to discuss how things behave at the quantum level. The science of it requires a bit of extra focus, but once you start to catch on, you’ll see just how incredible our God is! His creativity in design is truly unmatched!
For example, Dr. Lisle explains how quantum physics and quantum mechanics are so specific and consistent that scientists have mathematically proven the existence of certain particles before actually knowing that those particles needed to exist! The math lines up so perfectly that scientists knew things wouldn’t operate correctly without another particle. That’s such a unique factor in science. You don’t see that in any other field of study.
Dr. Lisle also explained the mind-blowing fact of how light behaves at the quantum level. If you’ve ever heard the debate of if light is a particle or a wave, then you’re going to want to hear this explanation. I won’t try to explain it all as succinctly as Dr. Lisle, but, SPOILER ALERT, light behaves differently depending on if you’re observing it or not! When we are not looking at it, it will behave like a wave, but once we look at it – BOOM! Particle! Crazy, right?
There is so much more I could talk about from this show, but I’ll leave it up to the expert. You’re gonna want to bring your pen and notebook to this conversation because it gets a little intense at times, but the scientific knowledge of the genius of Creator God is SO worth it!
