Default Re: Semi-OT: We will go to Stars.

about my earlier affirmation, the speed of photons traveling in opposite directions was explained already by other, but the Quantum Entanglement theori was not.

I found the following article in eikipedia that explains what Quantum Entanglement is and what are its consequences:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_entanglement

According to the article Quantum Entanglement is possible, but because of the imposibility of defining the way in wich an entangled particle colapses it is impossible to transmit any kind of information using this method, some scientists provide possible solutions for this barrier but the general consensus is that these "solutions" have their own impossibilities and canīt be used to transmit information in FTL speeds...

So Oleg was right and i was wrong, because while Quantum Entanglement really exists and 2 entangled particles can change states simultaniously over huge distances in a FTL way, this method canīt be used to transmit information because you cant predict in wich state the entangled particle will collapse...
