Researchers in Germany have demonstrated quantum entanglement of two atoms separated by 33 km (20.5 miles) of fiber optics. This is a record distance for this kind of communication and marks a breakthrough towards a fast and secure quantum internet.
Quantum entanglement is the uncanny phenomenon where two particles can become so inextricably linked that examining one can tell you about the state of the other. Stranger still, changing something about one particle will instantly alter its partner, no matter how far apart they are. That leads to the unsettling implication that information is being “teleported” faster than the speed of light, an idea that was too much for even Einstein, who famously described it as “spooky action at a distance.”
Despite its apparent impossibility, quantum entanglement has been consistently demonstrated in experiments for decades, with scientists taking advantage of its bizarre nature to quickly transmit data over long distances. And in the new study, researchers from Ludwig-Maximilians-University Munich (LMU) and Saarland University have now broken a distance record for quantum entanglement between two atoms over fiber optics.
In their experiments, the team entangled two rubidium atoms kept in optical traps in two different buildings on the LMU campus. They were separated by 700 m (2,297 ft) of fiber optics, which was extended out to 33 km with extra spools of cable. Each atom was excited with a laser pulse, which causes it to emit a photon that’s quantum entangled with the atom.
The photons are then sent down the fiber optic cables to meet at a receiving station in the middle. There, the photons undergo a joint measurement, which entangles them – and because they’re each already entangled with their own atom, the two atoms become entangled with each other as well.

I was watching Weird Earth on TV that talked about this but it was concerning India’s satellite that they lost contact with and China’s possible use of quantum entanglement. Is it possible China already has the ability?
Everybody is working on it!...................
Schrodinger’s Cat told me so..................
A dead cat tells no tales.
Since we, as humans, are made up of atoms, wouldn’t our own atoms also be quantumly entangled with the rest of the universe’s atoms?
Is there, at some level, a consciousness associated with this? Is this our soul?
“Which is going to be very bad news for the surveillance state.”
No problem! Quantum communications will only be for the elite and their approved, “licensed” handlers. There is no need for you to not share everything about yourself with the state, comrade! /s
Yep..
LSD was plentiful in the 90’s...
Musta been a flashback cuz I quit doing Acid in the 70’s................
😁
I have a way to detect Gravity Waves too.............
Hmmm….. not sure if that would work. My knowledge of quantum entanglement derives mostly from the set of Brian Greene books that have been collecting dust for some time now. Maybe I should crack them open again for a refresher.
Biden’stupidity travels faster than light. The act of observing it makes it more incoherent.

And that explains the reason for your post showing up twice as well. LOL
This helps explain how a demon in Asia can possess a soul in North America in a nano second.
They never explain how they determine that they are entangled.
Does however demonstrate the singularity of consciousness.
I have, since you mentioned, heard theories here and there suggesting that consciousness is embedded in the quantum mechanical. That’s getting more into the paranormal, or metaphysical, than scientific, I think. But it does sound interesting.
Consciousness can be understood as the relationship between all particles. As such it is a universal condition that exists, essentially, unencumbered by space and time. It is the God factor.
