Quantum teleportation, once confined to the pages of science fiction, is steadily becoming a tangible scientific achievement. Advances in quantum mechanics over the last decade have transformed teleportation from a theoretical concept into an experimental reality.
These breakthroughs have revealed innovative methods for transmitting information instantaneously over vast distances, offering transformative possibilities for computing, communication, and cryptography. Scientists are now closer than ever to bridging the gap between imagination and reality in this cutting-edge field.

Quantum entanglement is instantaneous, but teleportation is not. It can only occur at the speed of light or slower.
Instant communication would be awesome. We may not have the ability to move fast across space yet but communication across the galaxy might be.
Just make sure to do it correctly, or your head might end up on backwards. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6QRDgGoWEr0
This is narrative shielding for bigger disclosures to come. Ashton Forbes has exposed the physics behind this over the past few months, and now the people who’ve already used this technology are scrambling. There are 20-year-old public patents (Salvatore Pais) that nobody outside the defense contracting community bothered to read until Forbes came along and put two and two together.
Make sure you check for flies before you hit the button.
It depends on what you mean by teleportation.
Wonkavision teleportation, being torn in tiny bits and sent somewhere is limited by the speed of light.
A method that sent those pieces through another theoretical discovery like wormholes could effectively go much faster.
Entanglement on the other hand would be instantaneous as each particle of everything that comprises you is recorded and switched to the opposite the entangled particle on the other side of the universe is switched to replicate you. It would only really be a matter of how long this theoretical device would take to measure and record you.
FTL really isnt involved. Light, “fast”, and time arent even part of the conversation really.
Do away with the Roger Beep?
The Apollo missions (maybe Gemini?) gave us the Roger Beep, for when a Apollo craft or Johnson Center keyed off their mic to know transmission was complete before the other party was to respond due to lag time of radio waves.
I had a Roger Beeb installed in my CB mic when I drove 18’s in the eighties.
Entanglement is real but its non-locality is an illusion. To determine the state of the initial system, you must do specific measurements. You must then send those measurements by a classical communications channel to the other system to measure its states. Only then can you determine that the initial state is perfectly correlated (complimented) by its entangled pair.
Yes, information can only travel at the speed of light. So whether or not faster-than-light effects due to quantum mechanics are happening, any knowledge or usefulness gained from it can only occur at sublight speed.
I’ll get you a beer if the replicator can do me a thousand tons of gold.
There is actually an ongoing bet between Stephen Hawking and Kip Thorne if wormholes are even possible. However it turns out, neither of them are likely to collect upon that bet.

I wonder. What if one did this experiment:
1. Person A entangles two particles a* and b* and transports particle b* to person B.
2. Person A communicates to person B that at time t, person A will change the state of particle a* and send a notification to person C, who is equidistant between A and B. When person B observes a change to particle b*, person B should send a like notification to person C.
3. At time t, person A changes the state of particle a* and sends a notification to person C.
4. If persons A and B are sufficiently far apart, can person C deduce the propagation time of the change to particle a* reaching particle b*?

This was in my spam folder, almost missed it!
“When person B observes a change to particle b*”
Or does this part break entanglement?
