Scenarios about 'Max Planck'
German theoretical physicist Max Planck (1858-1947) was the originator of quantum theory, revolutionizing our understanding of atomic and subatomic processes. His discovery that energy is emitted in discrete packets called "quanta" earned him the 1918 Nobel Prize in Physics and laid the foundation for modern physics. In alternate history scenarios, Planck's work often serves as a pivotal point for divergent technological development, especially in timelines exploring advanced physics or earlier quantum breakthroughs.
