I have a dream...
A familiar popular movie Star Wars series. The long-awaited Han Solo is scheduled to be released end of the month are waiting for you holding the tickets.
It is said that Han Solo is called the fastest cosmic character in the universe, Millennium Falcon.
Can the Millennium Falcon actually be built? It is a world that is not thoughtless for amateurs, it seems that IBM is seriously thinking about it. Anyway, according to the company's Web media infinity, it is a pity that we have already reproduced lightsabers and droids.
Speaking of Millennium Falcon, has the characteristic of moving at a speed 1.5 times faster than the speed of light. IBM's unreasonableness does not give up on such a thing. Quantum computers are cited as a means to overcome this obstacle.
A quantum computer is a computer that operates based on the principle of quantum mechanics, which is fundamentally different from what we normally use, in other words, it is a super awesome computer. According to IBM, it is possible to calculate coordinates for hyperdrive which instantaneously moves between planets by using the super high-speed processing technology of the quantum computer.
wow, it's an exceedingly IBM innovation :)
thanks for stopping by and commenting on this post @jesusagon
Congratulations to IBM, it has always been a pioneer in technological advances
that's cool... thanks @yunairy
There are 3 ways to move faster than light without breaking the laws of physics:
Light is slower in a material like water. Something like 66% of the speed in a vacuum. Subatomic particles can briefly move faster than this in water before slowing down via Cherenkov radiation. Kind of a cheat so let's move on.
Two entangled sub-atomic particles are moving away from each other very fast. We measure the spin of one and find that it is spin-up. Somehow this information gets instantly transmitted to the other particle and it is always measured to be spin-down.
The spacetime of the universe is expanding. The farther you go away the faster things are moving away. The rate is something like 70 km/s per megaparsec. At the edge of the observable universe (14 billion light years away) space is moving as fast as the speed of light dragging everything away with it. Further away and spacetime is moving away faster than the speed of light. Physics is not violated because nothing is moving locally faster than light, it is just the fabric of spacetime that it doing so.
thanks for sharing in-depth knowledge on this subject @procrastilearner ... which truly adds more value to the above post.
Star Wars is my favorite movie..... Looking forward to seeing the Han Solo very soon. ;)
