[00:00:00]What makes a laser pointer always point in exactly [music] the same direction?

[00:00:04]When you shine a laser, what's really happening is that its quantum state is like a probability map of where the light will go.

[00:00:11]>> [music] >> It's as if the particles are exploring all possible paths at once, but only taking one, and it looks super steady to us. But here's the weird part. Until we actually measure which path the photon takes, it's like the particle [music] is playing a game of cosmic hide and seek with itself. And when you do measure it, what exactly happens to that quantum map [music] in an instant?
