People are becoming increasingly "retro-curious," says Kenneth Wharton, a professor of physics at San Jose State University.
The renewed curiosity about retrocausality is driven by more recent findings about quantum mechanics.
Wharton and others think it could account for some of the strange phenomena observed in quantum physics.
Retrocausality could provide a new means to finally "eliminate the tension" between quantum mechanics and classical physics.
Wharton: "The problem facing physics right now is that our two pillars of successful theories don't talk to each other" Price: "It gets rid of some more of the (apparently) non-classical features of quantum mechanics, by saying that they don't amount to anything physically real".
