The Quantum Realm "“ in the MCU

As Hank Pym explains in Ant-Man, the Quantum Realm is indeed an alternate dimension, which can be reached only if one shrinks to subatomic levels. Which is a mind-bending and fascinating theory, we may add. A subatomic particle is also an elementary particle (with the other type being the composite particle) "“ and this type is not made from anything else. It is the smallest quantifiable thing we know of in the real world, and it is not composed by anything that we know of.

In other words, one needs to become what the world hasn't even found out yet. As said, it is mind-bending. According to Hank Pym, when a person becomes this small, time and space cease to exist as we know them. Which is also mind-bending in itself, granting a person (in a way) powers beyond one can even imagine (in Ant-Man, it is said that one becomes faster and stronger "“ and that is all; but, frankly, the possibilities are limitless).

For someone who is not used to being in this new dimension, it is more than a strange experience. The new dimension seems to be filled with waves of energy and infinite reflections of the person transported.

And this is also the reason why Scott Lang remembers nothing from this experience…
