Refik, you must have a degree in this matter! The Explanation was really interesting, even though I have no idea what "quantum" means. Perhaps someone will help out?

I believe this is the basis of Douglas Adam's [fictional] improbability drive... a mechanization of force where unlikely events fuel propulsion.

Barb@71, Quantum entanglement is when two particles become linked so that the state of one instantly determines the state of the other, no matter how far apart they are.Two entangled electrons are created with opposite spins. Alice measures her electron → spin up Instantly, Bob's electron (even on Mars) must be → spin down
