Two photons can be connected in a way that seems to defy the very nature of space and time, yet still obeys the laws of quantum mechanics. Physicists at the University of Geneva achieved the weird result by creating a pair of ‘entangled’ photons, separating them, then sending them down a fiber optic cable about 18 kilometers apart. It was found that when each photon reached its destination, it could instantly sense its twin’s behavior without any communication. (source: nature.com)
