How exactly does the mere act of observing collapse the wave function of, say, photons? I don't quite understand that one. And Richard Feynman's question related to Young's double slit experiment and the fact the electron went through both slits, as well as neither, and just one slit, and just the other, he challenged how you would calculate the probability of which slit it would go through, by saying "What if you cut a third slit, or a fourth, or fifth, or cut infinite slits, so there was no panel left, then added a second panel, but cut infinite slits in that panel. How would you calculate the probability then? I am only 15, so I'm not as smart as you guys, but I like to try to understand things.
