Hi,
I am not very knowledgeable in physics, so please excuse me if this is
a stupid question, which it is according to my friends.
Is it possible for two events to happen simultaneously?
Yes - as long as they are local.
To be clear, I mean simultaneously by the very definition of the word,
as in the EXACT same instant.
Drop locality. Bell Inequality and the Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen
paradox. Collapse of a wavefunction into an observable is
instantaneous across arbitrarily large distances and through
arbitrarily large volumes. The only constraint is that no information
can be transmitted, only data.
