Fire electrons one at a time through two slits and something impossible happens: an interference pattern builds up on the detector, as if each individual electron somehow passes through both slits simultaneously. The interference pattern only disappears when you add a detector to observe which slit the electron uses. The act of measurement changes the result. This is not a technological limitation — it is a fundamental feature of quantum mechanics. The double slit experiment distills the central mystery of quantum physics into its simplest form: particles behave as waves until you look at them.
