The Mind-Boggling Science of Quantum Teleportation
Quantum Teleportation: Can It Really Transport Matter and Information Instantaneously? Quantum teleportation is a term that might sound like something out of a science fiction movie, but it's actually a real concept that scientists have been working on for many years. At its most basic level, quantum teleportation is a way to move the properties of one particle to another particle that's far away, without physically moving the particle itself. This is done through the magic of quantum entanglement. Quantum entanglement is a strange phenomenon that occurs when two particles become connected in a way that's difficult to explain. When particles are entangled, their properties become linked, so that when one particle is observed, the properties of the other particle are instantly determined, no matter how far apart they are from each other. Quantum teleportation works by first creating a pair of entangled particles, called the "entangled pair". One of these particles
