BREAKING—Successful faster-than-speed-of-light demonstration of **QUANTUM TELEPORTATION** of up to 44 kilometer. @Caltech & @Fermilab scientists teleported quantum info for a sustained period across distance of 44 km via quantum entanglement teleportation.

2) “In a quantum internet, information stored in qubits (quantum equivalent of computer bits) is shuttled, or teleported, over long distances through entanglement, a phenomenon in which particles become intrinsically linked to each other even when separated by vast distances.”

3) “A key feature of quantum networks is their fidelity, or the quality of teleportation, which characterizes how close the teleported qubit is to the original. In the new study, quantum teleportation was performed with a fidelity of more than 90 percent.” caltech.edu/about/news/qua…

4) “This research represents an important step in establishing a quantum internet of the future, which would revolutionize the fields of secure communication, data storage, precision sensing, and computing.

5) “"We are very proud to have achieved this milestone on sustainable, high-performing, and scalable quantum teleportation systems” author says.

6) I know quantum entanglement is super complex. But first you have to learn about quantum tunneling which is also faster than speed of light. But here @PBSSpaceTime discusses quantum entanglement is faster than light.

7) Damnit people, it’s well know quantum entanglement violates locality, and can transmit info faster than speed of light. This is quantum entanglement 101. See screenshots.

8) Haven’t you all heard about the DELAYED CHOICE QUANTUM ERASER experiment too? In that experiment, quantum entanglement can even **rewrite things in the past**. It’s not that it’s faster, but that it can move beyond the realm of normal space time.

9) Okay so some people say quantum teleportation cannot be faster than light. But there is debate about this. This article suggests it sorta is faster than light, but it is not “classical”, so not technically “faster” in classical sense. nature.com/news/quantum-t…

10) there is basically debate about what exactly is transmitted via quantum entanglement. “Information” is hard to define. We don’t truly know. Quantum entanglement is truly a black box of how it works. Truly still a mystery.
