In the past year, Pan and his colleagues reported two milestones towards this vision: the first ground-to-space quantum network spanning more than 4,600 kilometres, which was detailed in Nature in ...
Like nuclear fusion, the idea of space-based solar power has always seemed like a futuristic technology with an actual deployment into communities ever remaining a couple of decades away.
Constructing a sufficiently powerful quantum computer remains a formidable task. Satellites in space could be the key to making a global quantum internet a reality. They make it possible to network ...
Quantum computing is expected to solve some of the biggest challenges of our time. From predictive analysis to material design, from pharmaceutical development to the processing of enormous data sets.
Despite significant progress, quantum computers remain limited in power, and much of their potential is still theoretical. However, these limitations don't mean quantum systems can't provide value ...
