Scientists hit a new milestone this week when they successfully exploited the properties of quantum entanglement - particles generated simultaneously existing in a single, shared quantum state - to teleport photons 300 miles into space from Earth. The implications of this are huge. While Star Trek-like teleportation of humans exists in realms of fiction only, achieving space-scale quantum entanglement distance opens up the possibility of building an unhackable quantum internet.
