Werner Karl Heisenberg


Werner Karl Heisenberg, (Born 1901, and died in 1976)  a name most of you probably don't know, is truly a revolutionary in science. He is known as the Father of Quantum Mechanics, a study of subatomic particles that rocked the world of science out of its foundation. Quantum Mechanics is a section of science many find controversial, it leads to theories such as String Theory and Chaos Theory. Science is a field that is always developing, always changing, but when a change comes along that seems too drastic, too other-worldly, it is often looked down on. Even though his idea was one of the ones surely to be looked down on, Heisenberg went forward with is work. Today Quantum Mechanics and Quantum Physics are still widely researched, constantly being developed, but this amazing part of science would not be so if Heisenberg didn’t stand strong by his idea and fight against the minds that were too scared to accept this beautiful phenomenon.
