Undersea Quantum Communication
Underwater quantum communication is possible. Chinese researchers have been able to entangle two photons in tanks of seawater. Albeit a little odd, they deemed the experiment was needed as it may pave the way for military submarine activity requiring secure communication without the need to surface the submarine or a communication buoy. Though only in an experimental phase, this opens up new insight into quantum channels in water and insight into advancements in China’s quantum computing and military ambitions. April 11, 2018.
