Hey all,

Many have wondered what the quantum POV particle looks like.  I managed to
get a glimpse of one in a high-speed CSG collision* at the giant underground
POV particle accelerator near Geneva.

* for those interested in the technical details:
union {
  object {
    ObjectOne
    translate <-Offset+(SpeedOfLite*0.999999999999999*clock),0,0>
  }
  object {
    ObjectTwo
    translate <Offset-(SpeedOfLite*0.999999999999999*clock),0,0>
  }
}
