Does the moon disappear?
Where does this bright thing go?
Does the moon just disappear, a shabby-edged part at a time,
Because of an elipse?
It goes, you know,
It goes ...
And what might come back is never the same.

During an eclipse -
Doesn't it?

The riddle of the cat begins with Heisenberg's Uncertainty idea....
The most precise measurement we could ever make would be to shoot one photon of light at a moving object. But even so delicate a peek will change the position and motion we're trying to measure. At best, we always measure with some uncertainty. It makes precise measurement unthinkable. And that means we no longer have reason for thinking the world has any ultimate precision to measure. We admit the world is indeterminate. We admit that electrons have fuzzy (shabby) edges. When one collides, it may bounce one way. It may bounce the other. What comes back is never the same.
Heisenberg’s Cheshire cat sits (in an unopened box) on the moon and smiles. The cat in the box is both alive and dead at the same time. ** We have to look inside the box to learn its fate.
Does the moon disappear? Only the observer determines the truth.
