FTL, or faster-than-light, refers to any means of travel or communication that exceeds the speed of light. Entanglement is a phenomenon in quantum mechanics where two particles become connected in such a way that the state of one particle is dependent on the state of the other, regardless of the distance between them. Some scientists have theorized that using entanglement could potentially allow for FTL travel or communication.
The concept of "FTL via entanglement" is based on the idea that by entangling two particles, information can be transmitted between them instantaneously, allowing for communication or travel at speeds faster than light.
While there have been some theoretical discussions and proposals on FTL via entanglement, there has not been any concrete evidence or successful experiments to support this concept. The laws of physics, as we currently understand them, do not allow for FTL travel or communication.
One major challenge of FTL via entanglement is the issue of maintaining the entanglement over long distances. As particles become entangled, they can easily become unentangled due to external influences, making it difficult to maintain a stable connection for FTL communication. Additionally, the concept of FTL itself raises questions about causality and the implications it may have on the laws of physics.
It is currently unknown if FTL via entanglement will ever be possible. While some scientists continue to explore and research this concept, it would require a significant breakthrough in our understanding of physics and technology before FTL travel or communication via entanglement becomes a reality.
