Scientists Say the Universe Itself May Be “Pixelated”

[41.924]

Caltech professor suggests spacetime may be made out of individual “spacetime pixels,” instead of being smooth and continuous like it seems. Rana Adhikari’s goal is to reconcile the conventional laws of physics, as determined by general relativity, with the more mysterious world of quantum physics. The theory attempts to explain whether gravity can actually be split up into its individual components, a question that has been keeping quantum physicists up at night for a long time.
