The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Quantum entanglement could be a game changer in many ways. My favorite is communication at large distances. Though it will be centuries (likely) before humans could be among other stars, if they have an entangled communication device, they could relay information instantly. Instead of signals being constrained by the speed of light. - 1pg

Quantum entanglement is a fascinating topic. Theoretically entangled particle could communicate instantaneously across vast distances. But to be entangled, a particle pair needs to start out at a common point. So moving one partner to a distance galaxy to facilitate communication would face the same limitation as sending radio wave based communication in the first place. At least I think that would be the case. Thoughts?
