Well, maybe not disproving G-d altogether, but certainly disproving certain claims about His power, like being omnipresent.
G-d could still exist of course and simply not possess these attributes. But if we can prove G-d's power is limited and finite then G-d becomes much more likely simply an alien being whose powers are bound by the same laws of physics our technology is.
The physics double-slit experiment which shows how light particles behave as both a particle and a wave and will change the behaviour when someone looks at it would seem to suggest if G-d does exist He isn't looking at the experiment since if He were, the behaviour of light would be a constant, and not subject to change when someone else looks at the results.

Relational interpretation
"According to the relational interpretation of quantum mechanics, first proposed by Carlo Rovelli,[41] observations such as those in the double-slit experiment result specifically from the interaction between the observer (measuring device) and the object being observed (physically interacted with), not any absolute property possessed by the object. In the case of an electron, if it is initially "observed" at a particular slit, then the observerparticle (photonelectron) interaction includes information about the electron's position. This partially constrains the particle's eventual location at the screen. If it is "observed" (measured with a photon) not at a particular slit but rather at the screen, then there is no "which path" information as part of the interaction, so the electron's "observed" position on the screen is determined strictly by its probability function. This makes the resulting pattern on the screen the same as if each individual electron had passed through both slits. It has also been suggested that space and distance themselves are relational, and that an electron can appear to be in "two places at once"for example, at both slitsbecause its spatial relations to particular points on the screen remain identical from both slit locations.[42]"
And in Scripture itself, there's many occasions G-d asks where poeple are like in the Garden of Eden, and elsewhere asking people questions. If G-d knows all and sees all these indications of finite power are very curious indeed.
