   A wonderful aerial shot of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. So much detail here, such as the torpedo sailing by at the bottom left. However, extreme left & middle, you can see USS Phoenix, later to become the ARA general Belgrano. Her part in this action was fascinating...

   an alpha particle is a continuous, spherical wave of initial directions, so why do you see a linear track in a cloud chamber? Nevill Mott showed it's because you're just seeing one "slice" of that sphere. you're a quantum system that's become entangled with that one slice
