Quantum Entanglement
December 16, 2011
Can we remain connected to--and impacted by--another being, even when that being is not nearby?
Emotionally this seems to be so.
Physically?
Well, this might be possible, too. It certainly is the case for particles.
The Institute of Experimental Physics at the University of Innsbruck in Austria has done studies showing that "When two or more particles are entangled, they retain a connection...If an action is performed on one particle, its linked partner will also respond." It has been suggested that these same particles could continue to respond to one another from across galaxies.
This idea, which has been labelled "quantum entanglement," is a bit difficult to prove.
But it is a fascinating proposition, nonetheless.
After all, humans are large collections of electrically active particles. We are our own walking, talking galaxies.
And our galaxies can't help but be impacted by the galaxies of other walking, talking beings.
Anyone who has ever known love--whether for a significant other, a child, a family member or a friend--knows how vulnerable a galaxy can be.
It's good to know that this vulnerability may be explainable via physics.
For those of us who tend fault ourselves for wearing our hearts on our sleeves, its nice to have something to justify our energetic bewilderment.
After all, we now have the science of entanglement to back us up.
