Hal and Tom visit the vampires' lair with the baby,latterly joined by Annie. Snow tells her that he wants Eve but has no intention of killing her, merely keeping her hidden as she is the figurehead of resistance. As a consequence it is down to Annie to take the drastic action needed to save civilization and to shape her own destiny. In a coda Mr Rook, leader of the men who disposed of Alex's corpse, also brings the filmed evidence of Tom's transformation into a werewolf to a vault for tidying away.

Bell's Spaceship Paradox
| S - | Ep - | |
| - min | ||
Bell's spaceship paradox is a thought experiment in special relativity. It was first designed by E. Dewan and M. Beran in 1959 and became more widely known when J. S. Bell included a modified version. In the inertial frame S, a delicate string or thread hangs between two identically accelerating spaceships. Both rockets and the thread all move at all times with the same velocity in S and are therefore all subject to the same Lorentz contraction, so the entire assembly seems to be contracted in the S frame the same way. Therefore at first sight it might appear that the thread will not break during acceleration. This argument, however, is incorrect as shown by Dewan & Beran and Bell. The distance between the spaceships does not undergo Lorentz contraction with respect to the distance at the start, because in S it is effectively defined to remain the same, due to the same acceleration of both spaceships. It also turns out that the proper length between the two has increased in the frames in which they are momentarily at rest (S'), because the accelerations of the spaceships are unequal here. The thread, on the other hand, being a physical object held together by electrostatic forces, maintains the same proper length. Thus in frame S it must be Lorentz contracted, which result can also be derived when the electromagnetic fields of bodies in motion are considered. So the thread must break in both frames: In S' due to the unequal acceleration and the increasing distance between the spaceships, in S due to length contraction of the thread. In general, it was concluded by Dewan & Beran and Bell, that relativistic stresses arise when all parts of an object are accelerated the same way with respect to an inertial frame, and that length contraction has real physical consequences. However, while agreeing with the result that the thread will break and that relativistic stresses will occur, some authors disagree with the interpretation that this proves the "physical reality" of length contraction. They argue that relativistic acceleration is the sole cause for the breaking of the thread in all frames of reference, not length contraction. J. S. Bell (John Stewart Bell)
Bell's Theorem
| S - | Ep - | |
| - min | ||
Bell's Theorem Bell's theorem is a no-go theorem famous for drawing an important line in the sand between quantum mechanics (QM) and the world as we know it classically. In its simplest form, Bell's theorem states: No physical theory of local hidden variables can ever reproduce all of the predictions of quantum mechanics. When introduced in 1927, the philosophical implications of the new quantum theory were troubling to many prominent physicists of the day, including Albert Einstein. In a well known 1935 paper, Einstein and co-authors Boris Podolsky and Nathan Rosen (collectively EPR) demonstrated by a paradox that QM was incomplete. This provided hope that a more complete (and less troubling) theory might one day be discovered. But that conclusion rested on the seemingly reasonable assumptions of locality and realism (together called "local realism" or "local hidden variables", often interchangeably). In the vernacular of Einstein: locality meant no instantaneous ("spooky") action at a distance; realism meant the moon is there even when not being observed. These assumptions were hotly debated within the physics community, notably between Nobel laureates Einstein and Niels Bohr. In his groundbreaking 1964 paper, "On the Einstein Podolsky Rosen paradox", physicist John Stewart Bell presented an analogy (based on spin measurements on pairs of entangled electrons) to EPR's hypothetical paradox. Using their reasoning, he said, a choice of measurement setting here should not affect the outcome of a measurement there (and vice versa). After providing a mathematical formulation of locality and realism based on this, he showed specific cases where this would be inconsistent with the predictions of QM. J. S. Bell (John Stewart Bell)
