    Yes the Casimir Effect.

    Any good answer to a high school science question begs for a graduate level rebuttal.

      Ah thanks for the spelling, swipe typing had Kashmir already so I thought that was right. Corrected above.

      And yeah, even in high school I was lucky to have a physics teacher that liked delving deeper into the topics than what’s normally done at that level because my mind seems to naturally seek out those edge cases where rules as given break down. Still hoping we find one of those cases for the laws of thermodynamics lol.
