It's not really true. It always makes a diffraction pattern. If it were true you could predict the future. I got confused about this too, here's a physics SE question that helps: https://physics.stackexchange.com/questions/510077/what-prevents-delayed-choice-quantum-eraser-experiment-from-being-used-to-predic

OK here's a cut down version. To look at it you need light, photons So when you look at it, the photons hit the electrons and then come to you microscope That interaction between electron and photon changes the direction of the electron, resulting in the patern

This is how diffraction works! It’s pretty crazy. The math behind it is a sinus wave. https://personal.math.ubc.ca/~cass/courses/m309-03a/m309-projects/krzak/#:~:text=And%20so%2C%20given%20the%20distance,the%20single%20slit%20diffraction%20pattern.

Ive literally thrown people into existential crisis explaining this subject. The universe is probability and quantifies when it is observed.

The observer conditions reality. Particles behave differently if they have an observer, because the observer has it's own beliefs and perceptions of reality, and in this way conditions the experience

“observing” a particle means shining light on it, but light has energy so it will literally knock the particle out of its way, removing possibilities of its future paths. the more precise your measurement, the better focused the light, the less places the particle can go so it can’t interfere with itself as much
