The Future's Impact on the Past in Quantum Physics.

The 2022 Nobel Prize in physics highlighted the challenges quantum experiments pose to “local realism.” However, a growing body of experts propose “retrocausality” as a solution, suggesting that present actions can influence past events, thus preserving both locality and realism. This concept offers a novel approach to understanding causation and correlations in quantum mechanics, and despite some critics and confusion with “superdeterminism,” it is increasingly seen as a viable explanation for recent groundbreaking experiments, potentially safeguarding the core principles of special relativity.

Future's Influence on the Past: Scientists Convinced.

Scientists are exploring the idea of retrocausality, where actions in the future could influence the past, to better understand quantum physics. This phenomenon challenges classical physics ideals like locality and realism, but could help explain quantum entanglement and time reflections. Kenneth Wharton and other scientists believe that retrocausality could hold the key to understanding the quantum realm in a time-symmetric way.
