You wanted your own experiment to fail. Why?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Juana looked at Phil moodily over her coffee and took a scalding sip. It was the cheap stuff from the supermarket and there hadn\u2019t been much creamer left, but she needed the caffeine. Without it she would simply lie on her bed, and stare at the ceiling, and know she was empty. That all humanity was empty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI didn\u2019t want it to fail,\u201d she said, more out of a principle of stubbornness than because she thought Phil would believe her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cJuana, look at you. You\u2019re the front page of every newspaper in the world, you\u2019ve solved air pollution and let a hundred million more kids go to school or to the doctor, every last equation you slaved over worked out exactly as you dreamed it- or didn\u2019t you dream it? We\u2019ve known each other, what, nine years? You think I can\u2019t tell when you\u2019re not happy?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIt worked,\u201d she said bleakly. \u201cThe three tanks of particles, and the measurements, and getting around uncertainty- a man stepped into our teleporter here and came out in Korea. Exactly as he was.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cAnd that\u2019s wonderful.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">She was silent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cOkay,\u201d he said, in his what\u2019s-up-with-her-now tone. \u201cTell me what\u2019s wrong.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cNothing.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cJuana-\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cNo. That\u2019s it. Nothing. Nothingness. That\u2019s what\u2019s wrong.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI don\u2019t understand.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cYou\u2019re a neuroscientist. Your life has been spent working against what I\u2019ve just disproved in one awful sweep.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cHoney, please\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He didn\u2019t see it. None of them saw it. Juana stood with her cheap coffee and moved out onto the back porch even though it was freezing. She buried her face into the steam from the drink. The sky was a mass of blank white. She could not see the sun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And suddenly in one violent motion she hurled the coffee mug as far as she could out into the yard. It shattered- one large piece and a lot of little chips- and she turned away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI don\u2019t have a soul,\u201d she said, to the faceless sky and the running coffee and all the swirling chemicals and electrons in her brain. \u201cThere is no such thing as a soul. No one ever living has ever had a soul, or seen a soul, or known what a soul is. The experiment worked and I don\u2019t have a soul.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The sky and the coffee did not answer. The chemicals did. But it didn\u2019t matter. They could wreak what havoc they liked with her. None of it was real. Just all little evolutionary tips and tricks- reward Juana with happiness and she\u2019ll work for what she wants. Let her love, and she\u2019ll reproduce. Let her grieve, and she\u2019ll protect. And if she wants to believe there\u2019s some kind of meaning behind it all, some reason for her existence more than a collection of molecules starting to make more of itself an eternity ago in some ancient sea, well, that\u2019s okay. She can\u2019t help it. It\u2019s the reactions in her brain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cHoney.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Phil came outside, with little Amy perched on a shoulder wearing flip-flops. She was walking a plastic dinosaur through her father\u2019s graying curls, and at the sight of her Juana was filled with such dizzying love that she had to clutch at the railing. And none of it was real. Nothing she felt for Amy meant anything.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI\u2019m sorry,\u201d she said to Phil. \u201cIt\u2019s not you. My experiment means\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Phil set Amy down; she attached herself to her mother\u2019s leg.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cTell me.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI\u2019ve explained to you, of course, how teleportation works. You\u2019re not sending one person to a different place. You\u2019re using entanglement to copy all her particles- it\u2019s complicated- and making a new version of her step out somewhere where different particles already were. The original copy is destroyed in the process. It\u2019s like- like building a person where you want her.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI understand that. Well, the basics.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cAnd- it worked. Yesterday. We sent a man through and it worked. We copied just his particles. And he could act, and think, and remember, and feel, exactly like the first version of himself.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cSo? That\u2019s good, isn\u2019t it?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIt means that everything we are is particles,\u201d said Juana slowly. \u201cThere\u2019s nothing me out there, no purpose to my existence, no meaning of life except that this is the way it turned out\u2026 All I am, all any of us can say he is, is a hunk of gray-pink meat on a stomach and a couple of sticks.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cOh,\u201d said Amy briefly, and went back to playing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Phil laughed, and for a second she really was going to slap him. Then she remembered that her anger was nothing but particles, and his condescension was too. There was no point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThat\u2019s what\u2019s been bothering you?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">She could still derive some chemical satisfaction from putting venom into the word Yes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cJuana. I\u2019m a neuroscientist. I have to think about that every single day. And guess what?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">She glared. His grin was the widest she\u2019d ever seen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cYou can choose to deny it,\u201d he said. \u201cJust because there\u2019s nothing intangible floating around inside you doesn\u2019t mean there\u2019s no you. No one else\u2019s chemicals are like yours. No one else\u2019s brain is like yours. You may be only a hunk of gray-pink meat, and I may be too, but mine loves yours and yours loves mine. These feelings exist. Does it matter how they\u2019re created?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cPhil-\u201d she began, and stopped. His shadow stretched off towards the house. So there was a sun somewhere to cast it. She cocked her head. \u201c\u2026I broke a coffee mug.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In one hand he held Amy\u2019s. The other held Juana\u2019s. His finger was over a collection of gold and carbon atoms that was exactly that, and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They went and found all the pieces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-1\" style=\"color:#df6523\">About the Author<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I am a quirky, opinionated high school student in California who enjoys reading, soccer, and confusing her class with presentations on uncertainty and the delayed-choice experiment.
