  2. Is Schrödinger's cat about entanglement?

“Yes. In his 1935 thought experiment, the cat's life is entangled with a radioactive atom that may or may not have decayed. So quantum rules seem to say the cat is both alive and dead until someone looks.”

Reference: Schrödinger, *Naturwissenschaften* (1935)
