Quantum Astronomy - well sort-of

[Tom.G]

It is a proposed method for relaying the light from multiple telescope, long baseline, interferometers.

Some proposed hardware has passed the initial proof-of-concept stage.

Hello Tom,

Thank you for sharing this interesting article on quantum astronomy and its potential for creating telescopes with long baselines. I am always excited to learn about new technologies and methods that can advance our understanding of the universe.

I agree that the proposed method of using quantum entanglement to relay light from multiple telescopes has great potential for creating a telescope with a long baseline. This could greatly enhance our ability to observe and study distant objects in the universe, providing us with a clearer and more detailed view.

It is also encouraging to hear that some hardware has already passed the initial proof-of-concept stage. This shows that this method is not just a theoretical concept, but has potential for practical application in the future.

I believe that this development in quantum astronomy could revolutionize our understanding of the universe and open up new possibilities for scientific discoveries. I look forward to following the progress of this method and its potential impact on the field of astronomy.

Thank you for sharing this exciting development with us.
