Quote:If you had knowledge of the position and nature of every atom and particle in the universe along with a sufficiently strong computing device, you could predict anything from the creation of the universe to its end.
It'll never happen, though.
The problem with this is that, according to quantum physics, the very act of looking at subatomic particles causes them to change. Theoretically what you say is possible, assuming you can gain all the data of every particle and atom in the universe at the same time without changing them in the process, but we cannot do so.
