Einstein's Quantum Riddle Preview
Preview: Season 46 Episode 2 | 27sVideo has Closed Captions
Join scientists as they grab light from across the universe to prove quantum entanglement.
Einstein called it “spooky action at a distance,” but today quantum entanglement is poised to revolutionize technology from computers to cryptography. Physicists have gradually become convinced that the phenomenon—two subatomic particles that mirror changes in each other instantaneously over any distance—is real.
