    "abstract": "We present a spacetime setting for non-relativistic quantum mechanics that\ndeflates \"quantum mysteries\" and relates non-relativistic quantum mechanics to\nspecial relativity. This is achieved by assuming spacetime symmetries are\nfundamental in a blockworld setting, i.e., by interpreting spacetime relations\nas fundamental to relata. To justify this Relational Blockworld (RBW), we adopt\na result due to G. Kaiser whereby the relativity of simultaneity, stemming from\nthe Poincare algebra of special relativity, is responsible for the canonical\ncommutation relations of non-relativistic quantum mechanics. And, we\nincorporate a result due to A. Bohr, B. Mottelson and O. Ulfbeck whereby the\ndensity matrix for a given experimental situation is obtained from its\nspacetime symmetry group. We provide an example to illustrate the explanatory\nnature of RBW and conclude by explaining how RBW deflates \"quantum mysteries.\"",
