  1. Before working as a software engineer at Lockheed Martin my son was a radio operator on a nuclear sub, whose job was to decrypt messages meaning that he would know what the ship's new orders were before the ship's captain. Now he is doing something with the Aegis combat radar program. I could tell you more but, well you know
  2. I have made no argument; I have posed questions. No I am not a genius, but I did make some favorable investments that allowed for an early retirement, and my son is a software engineer with a top secret clearance working for Lockheed Martin.
  3. What you just said is that I am a troll because you do not know the answer. You are correct that I question things, as did Galileo who was jailed for not agreeing with the establishment. Has anything changed? Asking for the answer to the question. What is the process of separating 1 photon moving at light speed from the trillions around it? Is this a crime?
  4. What is the process of separating 1 photon moving at light speed from the trillions around it?
  5. Except that a single photon is not visible and you have no idea which one is the entangled one in the bunch so your odds would never be more than 50/50 which means that knowing is impossible.
  6. Which still leaves the question as to how a photon that is only in the 3mm space of a polarizer for 0.000000000010007 of a second can be detected and have its spin measured in the time allotted. This would require a detector and measurement unit that works at light speed or better.
  7. How are photons selected for entanglement, and how are they differentiated for measuring from surrounding photons? What was the thickness of the polarizer that you used?

Which do you believe is a buy in 2024? or do you have another favorite?
  9. How do you know that the photon that you measured is the entangled one, or do you send one photon, and if you do that how do you isolate one photon?
  10. What exactly is space time not connected too?
  11. The spin of a photon is measured by making polarization measurement. If we measure the linear polarization of a single photon along any axis, we can only find it aligned with the axis or perpendicular to this axis. If we measure the linear polarization of photons along any axis, there are only two possible results. It says if we measure the spin of a photon. NOT THAT ANYONE EVER ACTUALLY HAS It does not say how this is accomplished and it does say that one photons spin can be measured. So do you know, besides if the measurement takes 1 full second to complete the photon is 186,000 miles away at the end of the second, which raises another question as to how long does it actually take to measure a photon, and how long is the measuring device, which would yield the time that it is actually there. Do you know? Edit, a polarizer is approximately 3mm wide, so 3mm=3.171e-19 light years.
  12. Do you have a research paper and link to that? I actually have several polarizing lenses for my Nikon. Polarizing filters have the property of transmitting light that vibrates in one direction while absorbing light that vibrates in a perpendicular direction. These filters are used extensively in scientific instruments. In sunglasses and when placed over a camera lens, polarizing filters reduce unwanted reflections Doesn't say anything about measuring the spin of one individual entangled photon moving 186,000 miles per second.
  13. I find every lecture at or from the Max Plank Institute fascinating and everything in the 50-minute lecture equally fascinating. So, if a Max Planck quantum physicist does not interest you, neither would I repeating the same stuff. I came across the lecture while searching several ideas at once, I merely found the topic fascinating and thought that others might share my yearning for knowledge. I have found the lack of a quantum theory of gravity to be a gaping hole and as to whether it is related to entanglement, I can't be sure, just as I am still not sure how to measure the spin of a photon that is always moving at c. So how does anyone measure the spin of something moving at c or light speed? Do you know, because I do not
  14. Nima Arkani-Hamed at the Max Planck institute for physics in Munich THE END OF SPACETIME. Be sure to let him know what you disagree with https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GL77oOnrPzY&t=1802s
  15. I just found this on the net for the longest entanglement yet, but this at least was contained to optical fiber. Physicists from the Austrian Academy of Sciences have succeeded for the first time in entangling photons over 248 kilometers of optical fiber. For quantum communication, this is a new long-distance record and a significant step on the way to the quantum internet. Previously, the maximum distance was 100 kilometers. The last time that I looked over this I predicted that entanglement would be used for communication but all the predictions said that entanglement could not be used for communication for several reasons. So did that change or was I watching all Dis info because this involves military codes and the Chinese appear to have the lead here. I also found another article where China demonstrated entanglement with a satellite at a 1000 kilometer range.
  16. You forgot to detail both how the photons are measured to determine spin, nor how the distant photon is found and measured say on a Voyager probe.
  17. You are looking at photons right now in reading this. Now just take it for granted that I entangled one of them. How would you tell it apart from the other trillions of photons, and then to prove entanglement you need to measure it which first means isolating the entangled proton, then measuring it, which would invoke Heisenberg's indeterminacy principle making an accurate measurement if not impossible, at least always suspect. Note, I am not arguing that entanglement happens, just wondering how one would find a proton that is entangled say a million miles away?
  18. Darwin claimed that a lightning bolt hitting a pond created life, in his letter to Hooker. In 1871 Charles Darwin wrote a now famous letter to Joseph Hooker which included some of his speculations on the spontaneous generation of life in some - warm little pond. The letter was mailed to Hooker on February 1st, 1871. Down,Beckenham, Kent, S.E. My dear Hooker, ... It is often said that all the conditions for the first production of a living organism are now present, which could ever have been present. But if (and oh what a big if) we could conceive in some warm little pond with all sorts of ammonia and phosphoric salts, - light, heat, electricity &c. present, that a protein compound was chemically formed, ready to undergo still more complex changes, at the present day such matter wd be instantly devoured, or absorbed, which would not have been the case before living creatures were formed. You are correct however that this is NOT science as we know it now Actually mathematics works equally well in either direction, meaning that if the universe is inflating all one needs to do is retrace the trajectories of mass to find the zero point. I wonder if you are old enough to remember the big crunch, which was predicted to happen after the big bang ran out of energy and the universe began retracting as gravity began pulling things in reverse. Do you remember when that was settled science. This theory pretty much ended when the speed of expansion was determined to be increasing not slowing however, which was said to be caused by dark matter and energy which represents 95% of all mass and energy. So imagine that 95% of mount Everest is missing, where would it be? If you do not believe me that no one has observed either dark matter or energy, all you need to do is to provide the name of the first person to view these. See reality is not determined by what you or I believe, or do not believe. All that you can do here is to choose one theory over another. There are internet links on Bigfoot too. Really
  19. Are you claiming that everything just popping into existence at once like you claimed is science? I suppose that you also consider a lightning bolt hitting a dead lifeless pond creating DNA the most powerful molecular computer code in the known universe like Darwin who never saw a single gene claimed, to be science as well?
  20. Or in a simulation very little, almost no mass would be needed and logical laws need not apply. LOL are you literally claiming that everything just popped into existence at the same time? Sounds like the moment that the big computer in the sky was turned on. How do you explain the evidence of inflation if everything just popped into existence? See in reality there are no holes, because everything is a hole which leaves just emptiness.
  21. Statistically there is exactly a 99.99999999999999999999999999999999999999 percent chance that the Earth is not ground zero of the big bang. In fact, the Earth being the center of the universe is what the Catholic Church believed before Galileo proved them wrong. That said a 13 billion year wide void should be visible
  22. Does anyone know? I mean is there even an internet link?
  23. How was that determined when neither have been observed? Seriously I am asking If it must act as you say, then there is no theory as it becomes a proven fact and the theory vanishes. Since no one knows for sure and there are no musts it remains theory. Where do you suppose that the 95% of dark matter and energy is hiding? Where is ground zero of the big bang? Shouldn't there be a void 13 or more billion years wide void with an outward moving ring of mass? and why would the CMB be coming from every direction and not all moving away from the source?
  24. There is no way to separate two things that have never been observed, so can you tell us how you know that they are not one in the same? LOL you are correct NASA level theory can be confusing for some
