https://twitter.com/WKCosmo/status/1761053444381475055The rocket problem was first posed by John Bell (same guy as Bell's Theorem in quantum mechanics). The story is, he posed the problem to his colleagues at CERN, and (like the poll) most of them got it wrong!

The basic properties of the hydrogen atom are a consequence of the Heisenberg uncertainty principle relating the uncertainty of the radius of the electron in orbit to the uncertainty in its momentum, 2/

Everybody involved, including the theorists, should have known better, and probably did.
