While we are on this subject I have a question for some of you smart guys out there.
With reference to the Einstein Field Equations:
1. Do solutions of these equations exist that predict Gravity Waves?
2. Are approximations required to achieve these solutions?
3. Are the solutions rock solid or could they be challenged?
The reason for questions:
We’ve never seen a gravity wave. Not one. So I’m interested in how accurately we believe we can predict the magnitude of the disturbance required to create a gravity wave detectable on earth.
That’s weird, so a cat can be both dead and alive if gravity is sufficiently weak.
What about a human in intergalactic space?
While I don’t doubt the above research, it is generally agreed that the effect of Large Numbers(TM) of weakly interacting systems and the resulting decoherance is the dominant mechanism by which quantum mechanical behavior transitions into macroscopic classical behavior.
And Schroedinger’s dog sat in the corner and laughed.
I used to think that time was altered by ass (as in my ex).
Yeah? prove it!
And this jitter is affected by time dilation: it is slowed down on the ground and speeds up at higher altitudes. The researchers have shown that this effect destroys the quantum superposition and, thus, forces larger objects to behave as we expect in everyday life.

So if the boxed cat is far away from any gravitational field it can still be both alive and dead?
