About
A new experiment suggests that the future of astronomy may rely on quantum physics. Scientists have shown that Quantum Entanglement can link distant observatories without physically transporting light between them.
Using Quantum Memory stored in diamonds, researchers connected two stations more than a kilometer apart while preserving the delicate phase information needed for Optical Interferometry.
The result is a proof-of-concept method that could overcome the distance limits of conventional telescope arrays. If scaled up, this approach may enable extremely high-resolution images of distant cosmic objects and lay the foundation for a future quantum network for astronomy.
