What is Lockheed Martin's goal for their quantum computing investment?

I have heard the phrase quantum computing my question is what is it? Thanks.
 
Physics news on Phys.org
What is it? Comfortable life for D-Wave founders ;)
Two months ago Lockheed Martin spent several millions on their machine.
Does anybody knows what L-M wants to do with this box?

@edpell: wiki (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_computer) and Qubit.org (http://www.qubit.org/) are good starting points for this issue, definitely too wide to be covered in such post.

Towards the end of the first lecture for the Qiskit Global Summer School 2025, Foundations of Quantum Mechanics, Olivia Lanes (Global Lead, Content and Education IBM) stated...

If we release an electron around a positively charged sphere, the initial state of electron is a linear combination of Hydrogen-like states. According to quantum mechanics, evolution of time would not change this initial state because the potential is time independent. However, classically we expect the electron to collide with the sphere. So, it seems that the quantum and classics predict different behaviours!
