Full Title or Meme
The Particle Model was created for quantum mechanics to extended the physics of Newton's Planets to sub-atomic phenomenon.
That model is treated here as though it were a myth.
Context
Newton thought that light was made up of particles, but then it was discovered that it behaves like a wave. Later, however (in the beginning of the twentieth century), it was found that light did indeed sometimes behave like a particle. Historically, the electron, for example, was thought to behave like a particle, and then it was found that in many respects it behaved like a wave. So it really behaves like neither. Now we have given up. We say: “It is like neither.”[1]
