A quantum state of light was successfully teleported through more than 30 kilometers (around 18 miles) of fiber optic cable amid a torrent of internet traffic – a feat of engineering once considered impossible.
It shows that it’s possible to send entangled photons over existing fiber infrastructure without building something totally new, which as I understand it has applications in cryptography, secure communications, and quantum computing.
