Here's an article on it: Quantum entanglement - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
If we could somehow understand it and employ it to move real life matter, interstellar travel may become a reality. |
Well, thats the 2nd intelligent answer I've ever had after posing this question, and I've asked this for many years. I usually get the "Deer caught in headlights" look. The first was from a friend with a Phd in physics. However, it's my understanding that the beam of light would double in speed, but then again this really isn't a paradox is it.
I hate math.
