Quantum Mysticism

In the 1920's Niels Bohr, father of quantum theory, proposed a relationship between the observer and quantum processes, showing that the simple act of measurement could affect an experiment. To some, this proved what they already "knew", that the universe does not exist until we actually observe it.

Unwittingly, Bohr had set in motion the quantum mysticism bandwagon which still rolls along to this day. However, most scientists today accept that the physical universe, stars and galaxies, matter and energy, atoms and sub-atomic particles all do exist, even when not being measured or observed.
