Science has been for almost one hundred years, divided between two conceptual views of reality. On one side, classical mechanics, where everything is a particle, and signals can’t travel faster than light. On the other side, quantum mechanics, where everything is a wave and entanglement can create instant correlations between systems very far apart. Both views explain very well their own domain. The very big, for classical mechanics and the very small, for quantum mechanics, yet nobody has been able to build a unified theory that integrates the two. So, is the universe a particle or a wave ?
