My question is quite simple. In the thought experiment of Schroedinger's cat: When the scientist measures the state of the cat, its wavefunction collapses into either the alive or dead state. But wouldn't then the scientist in turn be in a superposition of measuring dead respectively alive until someone opens the door to the laboratory and asks the scientist about the outcome of the experiment (and therefore measures the state of the system)?
