Neil deGrasse Tyson Explores Quantum Entanglement with Janna Levin
419,267
Published 2020-04-14
To wrap your head around what “happens” during quantum entanglement, Janna gives us an example of splitting a wishbone at the family dinner table. Explore why, even though we can’t communicate faster than the speed of light, knowledge can work faster than the speed of light.
Find out if we can use quantum entanglement to send encrypted messages. Discover more about the development of quantum computing and its delicate use of quantum entanglement. Janna tells us how we “see” quantum entanglement despite the fact that the act of looking changes the behavior. Lastly, investigate the difference between quantum entanglement and quantum tunneling. All that, plus, Chuck wants to know the answer to a simple question – “Is anything f***king real?!”

Shout out to the dude in a million years that just falls through the earth because probability
-
Chuck always embodies my thoughts in these 😂
-
Came to know more about Quantum entanglement, became more confused
-
I love watching the progression of Chuck's education through these episodes
-
Socks seem to have an unusually high probability of quantum tunneling...
-
Need more with this Trio 🙌🏾
-
Chuck coming in HOT with some legit, well thought out questions (bangers), no jokes!! my mans! Thank you guys for this show, it gives me back my imagination from childhood being forced to envision these topics! Unreal!
-
13:14 Chuck rethinking his whole life.
-

-
Need more of this!! More Janna :D!! Great work guys!
-
So this is what Jada and August had
-
07:48 -- Chuck nailed it right there!! (It's not "commutation" faster than the speed of light, it's "knowledge" faster than the speed of light.). Bravo, dude.
-
I love all of space: Planets, Stars, Black holes, and space itself! and this channel is basically my dream channel!
-
Schrödinger's wish bone
-
What I learned in this video: I need to learn something about all of this. I understood very little, but it was enough to make me more interested. Thanks.
-
Yay, Janna! Love when she is on. Great chemistry with Neil and Chuck. Great explanations of complicated cosmology for everyday folks.
-
These videos are amazing! You guys should do more short 10-20min snippits of theory/space stuff
-
we love janna, please have her on more often. thanks, Doug and Deb Stewart
-
So Janna you say nothing is real? Janna: yep Neil: yep Chuck: OH MY GAWD
-
12:54 Chuck hits the nail on the head when he said that nothing is real. We basically live in a holographic universe. This is completely mind blowing. It kind of relates to the double slit experiment when using a photon generator.
