Comments are hysterical. Sciencey types being quite taken with themselves.

I looked it up. Schrodinger had too much idle time on his hands.

It’s called superpossimible.

No match for a Smelloscope.

I think Congress should make “Quantum Leap” a National Holiday.

I shot Schrödinger’s cat with Chekhov’s gun.

I assume you mean a phaser. 'Gun' is a rather antiquated term in my century.

I always think of the Big Bang Theory when I see Schrodinger’s cat mentioned.

Staying off the class clown agenda, I think this is pretty cool and interesting. Thank you.

Very little productivity about it. Always kills a lot of very interesting threads.

Much like shooting fish in a barrel, you shoot cats in a box.

Checked the link and saw a picture of the team that developed it.

The young lady is beautiful!

No need for makeup and a fantastic smile!

Thats my kind of lab partner!

(made you look!)

I love this technical diagram because t made the complex understandable to me (thanks, Rush!). Without it, I would have been completely lost.

In my opinion the most profound and significant question in Biology and maybe even Physics is the one posed by Dr. Michael Levin of Tufts University. His research has shown that individual cells communicate through electrochemical ion channels to construct the complex tissues, organs, and structures like the brain using a shared model of a completed body as a form or template.

They generate proteins from DNA to make the concrete of biosystems while continuously trying to reduce the error between what they have constructed and the abstract information stored in the model.

The question that Levin is trying to ask is “How and where do biological systems encode and store this model?” This model has the properties of readable writeable memory in a computer that connects with the cells through an electrochemical network but hasn’t been detected or measured by any potential measuring device in existence. If the bits of this computer are created by biological systems using quantum entanglement at a molecular level it might be observable using the technology in the article. Once the model can be detected and decoded it could be “reprogrammed” to cure disease or regenerate organs, limbs, and possibly even the brain. This would open the door to a form of immortality that is unimaginable today.

“This would open the door to...”

A great many things. Things we can’t imagine today, probably.

The quantum cryptography the Chinese are working on is also something. They’ve a satellite up they’re testing with.

And they are still unable to locate Kamala’s brain.

And I agree. I do believe there is indeed and unseen “intelligence” at the atomic and subatomic level that we are just coming to understand.

It is interesting stuff to contemplate. Thank you for sharing that. I will chase it down and read more. :)

Einstein didn't use the phrase "spooky action at a distance" to describe quantum entanglement, he used it to deride the very idea because he thought it was beyond the realm of the possible. He wasn't describing the process, he was mocking the idea.

I understand it can see graphene doing the impossible.
