We present a spacetime setting for non-relativistic quantum mechanics thatdeflates "quantum mysteries" and relates non-relativistic quantum mechanics tospecial relativity. This is achieved by assuming spacetime symmetries arefundamental in a blockworld setting, i.e., by interpreting spacetime relationsas fundamental to relata. To justify this Relational Blockworld (RBW), we adopta result due to G. Kaiser whereby the relativity of simultaneity, stemming fromthe Poincare algebra of special relativity, is responsible for the canonicalcommutation relations of non-relativistic quantum mechanics. And, weincorporate a result due to A. Bohr, B. Mottelson and O. Ulfbeck whereby thedensity matrix for a given experimental situation is obtained from itsspacetime symmetry group. We provide an example to illustrate the explanatorynature of RBW and conclude by explaining how RBW deflates "quantum mysteries."Comment: Accepted for publication in Physics Essays. 22 pages text, 13 figure
