Sorry for a bit of a link bomb, but this is awesome stuff…“coming to  
a network near you soon”

Been reading about the security implications with Quantum related  
computing for some time, great to see them doing so well…and without  
wires being best!!

This looks like a good beginning. I imagine much like when aplitude and  
frequency modulation were “invented”. Throw something out, scramble it, and  
have it reappear on the other side. Since it seems to not deteriorate in  
space, I wonder when a Star Trek transporter will be available? In the short  
term, maybe we’ll all start wearing helmets with little parabolic dishes on top  
so we can instantly get data from satelites.

Ha!

I think it will make transporting objects more likely. By manipulating  
particles at the destination to be exactly like those at the source,  
then disintegrating the source particles, transportation  
done…although, even Star Trek admitted this, transportation is  
actually copying… They’ve already managed to copy objects in today’s  
world, but the original object remained…so they’re getting there.

[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A\_for\_Anything](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_for_Anything)

“A for Anything is a science fiction novel by American writer Damon  
Knight. The author postulates the discovery, in the near future, of the  
“Gismo”, a device that can duplicate anythingâeven another Gismo. Since  
all material objects have become essentially free, the only commodity of  
value is human labor, and the author suggests that a slave economy would  
be the inevitable result.”

Jian-Wei Pan of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), takes us a step  
closer to achieving instant, unhackable communication…-😛
