    When will we establish photon pair quantum entanglement instant communication with distant stars and galaxies?

    If we really could create instant communications with quantum entanglement, we could have robotic probes with VR exploring other worlds in real time.

    Or imagine if we could make a perfect digital copy of a person down to the atomic level, send it across the galaxy and recontruct it. It would be like teleportation except you would be in two places at the same time.

    It was probably discovered some time in the 1990s but it was covered up.

    I know scientists have already sent particles like 15 miles, so they're getting there.

    How do you suppose this thing could work?

    I find the OP interesting and insightful.

    I suppose in theory it could happen but I wouldn't bet on it..

    I don't even know what it would be? a hologram? a replica?

    Also, information can be sent from point a to point b but not from point b to point a...

    I think you need first to send one of each pair of electrons to where you need to send the message. This cannot be done faster than the speed of light.
