Quantum Physics Timeline
Prehistory (Before 1900)
In the beginning, the universe was just a big ball of nothingness. Then, suddenly, it was something. And then it was something else.
Somebody, probably a wizard, discovered that things are made of matter and energy. But not really, because they're just made of probability.
- Werner Heisenberg's Theory of Suddenly Appearings (1800)
- Uncertainty Principle According to Murphy (1850)
Early 20th Century (1900-1950)
The discovery of the atom, the electron, the proton, and the neutron. Because, you know, those things just kind of exist.
Late 20th Century (1950-2000)

Late 20th Century (1950-2000)
Particle accelerators, supercolliders, and other fancy machines that smash things together until they're just a pile of wreckage.
21st Century (2000-Present)
Quantum computing, quantum entanglement, and other things that make your head hurt.
And that's the story of quantum physics in the most basic, oversimplified terms possible.
