We can never speak about nature without speaking about ourselves, because what we see depends on how we look at it. An electron can either be a wave or a particle depending on the experiment that we perform.

According to Heisenberg’s uncertainty principle, the observer and the observed can’t be separated. It was first believed that scientific descriptions could exist independently of the human observer, thus being objective. However, when one tries to measure a particle’s properties, they become influenced by the techniques of observation. Perform a double slit experiment, for instance, and particles act like a wave. Next, try to observe the particles in the same experiment through one slit, and the results are that the particles behave as particles. How weird! This implies scientific discovery to be not just a statement of objective descriptions like we might believe of Newtonian mechanics.
