Space.com describes Quantum Entanglement as “one seriously long-distance relationship!”
Yes, indeed! Quantum entanglement is a phenomenon in quantum physics where two or more particles become interconnected in such a way that the state of one particle instantaneously influences the state of the other, regardless of the distance between them. This relationship persists even when the entangled particles are separated by vast distances, a concept famously referred to as "spooky action at a distance" by Albert Einstein.
Fascinating, mysterious and currently still being explored for breaking all universal laws! This connection occurs at a quantum level and challenges our traditional understanding of how things interact across distances, suggesting that particles can share information in ways we are still trying to understand.
A few examples to put into perspective this phenomenon:
A mother having a “feeling” about something wrong with one of her children even though the child is away at college?
Twins can sense when the other has been injured, despite the distance they are apart.
Have you ever experienced a feeling of joy when a cheerful person entered the same room as you?
In 2022, three scientists were awarded the Noble Prize for their research in Quantum Entanglement and for helping the world try to understand this amazing phenomenon. We are constantly receiving and transmitting information, as are animals, trees and the Earth.
Quantum information may be the key to understanding the entire universe…universes??
