....wow.
Your fragile exterior seems to be dripping with melted snow, would you like a towel?

FTL nonsense?
Seems to me that the entire notion of quantum entanglement is that you make a change to one atom and that change is instantaneously made to it's partner/entangled atom. Hence, the advantage of such a notion for communication.
Time doesn't seem to come into play in this. FTL, or not.
I just love it when smearing words are used, like nonsense.
The expected additional momentum scatter which Popper wrongly attributed to the Copenhagen interpretation can be interpreted as allowing faster-than-light communication, which is thought to be impossible, even in quantum mechanics. Indeed, some authors have criticized Popper's experiment based on this impossibility of superluminal communication in quantum mechanics.[22][23] Use of quantum correlations for faster-than-light communication is thought to be flawed because of the no-communication theorem in quantum mechanics. However the theorem is not applicable to this experiment. In this experiment, the "sender" tries to signal 0 and 1 by narrowing the slit, or widening it, thus changing the probability distribution among the "receiver's" detectors. If the no-communication theorem were applicable, then no matter if the sender widens the slit or narrows it, the receiver should see the same probability distribution among his detectors. This is true, regardless of whether the device was used for communication (i.e. sans coincidence circuit), or not (i.e. in coincidence).

The Astroengineer didn't last long on telling his story on ATS or on his blog. We don't need to ponder why. In the recent news the Chinese claim to have successfully communicated quantumly with one of their satellites. A few weeks before that there was another release from China about their abilities to do quantum communications. And just last week some came from Australia about some underwater project that furthered the mysterious science. What all of these subsequent stories tell us is that the astroengineer was probably absolutely correct in what he was revealing.
Except that none of those involve any FTL nonsense.
The astroengineer story is nothing but fiction, exploiting the fact that most people don't know jack about quantum mechanics.

Sorry wise One
lead us too the light
Sure, you can start by checking out Feynman Lectures on Physics.
I think I can safely say that nobody understands quantum mechanics.

This would only apply if the Rovers actually were on Mars.
Instead of being on Devon Island in Canada. Which explains the Fast thumbnail preview.
The timing of the regular picture intervals would have more to do with faking the time needed to submit one from Mars.
(D-Wave quantum computers are basically quantum receivers based on these principles) and such waves are akin to pushing a row of marbles. You push one end, the other end instantly moves.
