The expectation vs. reality of Schrödinger's work is just too good! Popular culture imagines quantum physics as mystical brain powers with glowing neurons, while the actual Schrödinger was just a dude with colleagues at the Institute for Advanced Study. The bottom image shows what appears to be location pins of scientists - real people doing real work instead of having quantum superpowers. The gap between quantum physics in sci-fi and the mundane reality of academic research is the ultimate physicist inside joke. Next you'll tell me Einstein didn't actually shoot lightning from his fingertips!
