    Default Physicist unveils plan for entangling massive objects

    "Roman Schnabel, a physics professor at the Max Planck Institute for Gravitational Physics has published a paper in the journal Physical Review Letters outlining a plan for entangling two "massive" objects. He and his team are still working on a way to actually carry out the plan, but if successful, the group would succeed in entangling two 0.1 kg mass mirrors, which would represent a much larger example of entanglement than anything that has come before—up till now the largest objects to be entangled were of micron size."

    The precision required to reach a from of truly functional entanglement is, for the most part, an absolutely precise reciprocal of Planck's constant, frequency wise. Zero jitter.


    Of course, that would lead to all kinds of other potential effects.....

    How would they even know the precise measurement of the Plank's constant. And yes it would lead to all kinds of other issues. Lending strength and credence to the Big Bang theory, the acceleration of the expansion of the universe, string theory, the existence of exotic particles, perhaps even virtual particles, dark matter and energy, even time travel, and a host of other things I haven't thought of.
