Einstein’s Quantum Riddle | Full Documentary | NOVA | PBS
Join scientists as they grab light from across the universe to prove quantum entanglement is real.
#NOVAPBS Official Website: https://to.pbs.org/3vqiMpg
Einstein called it “spooky action at a distance,” but today quantum entanglement is poised to revolutionize technology from computers to cryptography. Physicists have gradually become convinced that the phenomenon—two subatomic particles that mirror changes in each other instantaneously over any distance—is real. But a few doubts remain. NOVA follows a ground-breaking experiment in the Canary Islands to use quasars at opposite ends of the universe to once and for all settle remaining questions.

The fool has said in his heart, There is no God. -God
The Big Bang is foolish because:
1. Something cannot come from nothing.
2. It violates physics.
3. It cannot explain life.
4. The universe is impossibly fine-tuned.
5. Belief in it requires blind faith instead of evidence.

And what an interesting expression made by the last astrophysicist at 52.00 about knowing God's thoughts.

Excellent episode. And yet many scientist struggle with considering that there is a Creator and yet the scriptures indicate that the source of all dynamic energy originates with what is revealed at Isaiah 40:26.

Quantum entanglement is God's transmission technology enabling Him to view the universe everywhere at anytime at the same time. This is what we've stumbled upon

Educated guesses with percentages like weather predictions at this point, wake up people! If I hear one more scientist tell me something is absolute truth I’m going to lose my mind. Strat with we think…

I hate talking bad about people especially someone important but if you think about it if we all had free information to all patents and ideas imagine how smart we would all be….. This is a copy from google information. Did Einstein have any college degrees?
He received a bachelor's degree from Swiss Federal Polytechnic in 1900 and a PhD from the University of Zurich in 1905. Einstein's career famously began at a patent office in Bern, Switzerland, where he had time to ponder big questions in physics after reviewing patent applications. Mar 14, 2017. Now, is this fair?????? Imagine how many people would be smarter than Einstein if given the same chance…….

What they do not tell you is that Google, (and many others) were paying to use the technology of the Quantum Computer Company IONQ to make these so called breakthroughs, just as the other big players, were Amazon, Microsoft, and several Federal Government Agencies, including military; and IONQ made the breakthrough back in 2012, that led to all of this ! They never even mention it, and let you beleive in the great Google, the Great Microsoft, the Great Amazon, the Great Federal Government, etc., it is all a disgraceful fraud and sham, deception, where they are totally dishonest, and falsely take the so called "credit" and "glory" and praise while not even mentioning IONQ and Christopher, the great Quantum physicist genius who was working for MIT when he was only 16 years old, long before these clowns even had any notion of any of this stuff !

spooky action at a distance literally being a time travelesque function bc all info going fwd is slingshot back twice as far, whatever entangled info is decoded fwd is simultaneously read in the reverse as well, soon as you find out youre being watched that info goes back and you start to feel like youre being watched, supersymmetry demands it after all 💀

Science facts
1. Math, Numbers and Time are all human made illusions.
Those subjects didn't exist before mankind.
2. I'm right 📐 😂

Pharaoh and the Two in One Power
Dear Senators,
After the Constinapolis and Ephesus(third one pls,,,,search) ,,, Greece in Egypt- Cleopatra as Marie!!!
The Council of Elders sat and studied the Nature Pyramid, ending-Up/Down the Classification of Power in the Meeting Points like Mecca, Jerusalem, Rome,(for Christianity, Seoul(for Buddhism) and the Inka and Maya Community (the Red Indian-Red Sun)!!!,,,,, chose to stay away from Religion as the First born Sun in Order for more planting of Sons from the Red, Orange and Yellow Suns and in Tandem with the Agreement to Concure Vast Lands!!!
Happenings after breaking the Ring of Saturn then finding the Black with the Pyramids and Uabesh Calendar!!!
Have a good Day.
Thank You Pharaohs,
Thank You Senators,
Thank You Christ Embassy Church,
Thank You Ofafa Jericho Secondary School,
Thank You Jomo Kenyatta University of Agriculture and Technology,
Thank You Pastor Oyakhilome,
Thank You United Nations,
Yours sincerely,
Ochieng.

I love how Shouini Ghose at the end says "we're left with conclusions about the universe that make no sense whatsoever. Science is stepping outside of all of our boundaries of common sense. It's almost like being in Alice in Wonderland, right?"
However, what if you reframe your thoughts and consider all probabilities, all possible outcomes?
Ecclesiates 8;17 says
“Then I saw all the work of the true God, how mankind is unable to discover the work that is done under the sun. No matter how much people may toil in seeking, they will not discover. Even if they say that they are wise enough to know, they are not able to discover.”
This verse makes it clear that God "Jehovah" has set limits on what humans can uncover on their own. While God graciously reveals what we need to know for life and godly devotion (2 Peter 1:3), his wisdom and works are far beyond what man can ever fully discover.
Another related scripture is Deuteronomy 29:29:
> “The secret things belong to Jehovah our God, but the things revealed belong to us and to our descendants forever, so that we may carry out all the words of this Law.”
It is wisdom to know that while Jehovah God keeps certain things hidden in his wisdom, he reveals enough for us to have faith, hope, and direction?
