Understanding Quantum Fields

  • Electromagnetic field is like water
  • Photons are like waves
  • Electrons are like molecules
  • When we see water, we don't see the atoms, we also see what's not covered by atoms
  • In fact, we only see what connects the atoms - the electromagnetic field
  • When atoms move, the field moves, and what we see is the ripples
  • And they will never remain still, but if they did, we wouldn't see them, and it would be dark everywhere
