CAMBRIDGE, MA—In a breakthrough that has sent the physics community into a week-long existential crisis, MIT researchers have officially confirmed that Albert Einstein was wrong after 98 years. The revelation arrived after scientists used ultracold atoms in the famous double-slit experiment, which—according to sources—Einstein “would have hated, probably thrown chalk at, and then muttered something about God not playing dice.”
For decades, the double-slit experiment has left science nerds, philosophers, and confused high school students in awe, baffled by particles that can seemingly go through two doors at once. The latest MIT study, however, stripped the experiment to its “quantum essentials.” For those unfamiliar, that’s science-speak for “we made it cooler—literally.”
Lead researcher Dr. Paige Twocrow said, “Einstein kept talking about ‘hidden variables’—as if the universe was just hiding the answers behind its back, like a cosmic game of peekaboo. So we decided to cool atoms near absolute zero, just to see if they’d shiver out the truth.”
Shockingly, after 17 months of staring at a screen saver that looked suspiciously like the Windows ‘Mystify’ pattern, the team concluded: the double-slit experiment still works, and quantum mechanics is even weirder when atoms are ultracold. “Einstein was wrong. AGAIN,” said Dr. Twocrow. “But we can’t blame him. He didn’t have access to Liquid Nitrogen or high-speed WiFi.”
The Nobel Committee responded by posting a meme on X (formerly known as Twitter): “If Einstein was wrong, does this mean my high school physics teacher owes me an apology?” MIT has confirmed that all future experiments will involve colder and colder atoms until someone finally understands what’s going on, or everyone’s coffee freezes—whichever comes first.
Meanwhile, Schrödinger’s cat declined to comment, claiming it’s both alive and not interested.
