Hello everyone,

I recently found this forum and have a question about spooky entanglement. When I first heard of this I was very interested. How can changings in one particle effect another particle
even if they were separated by hundreds, thousands or even millions of miles. One explanation I heard was faster then light communication but how do they communicate and how can anything be faster then light. Since light particles are massless they are the fastest things in the universe with nothing being able to go faster. I on the other hand thought of something and would like to see if someone can give me their opinion. Could the reason they spooky entanglement accurs is due to another dimension. Could they be connect by another dimension which we are unable to sense. This could explain why changes in one particle efforts another particle.
