StarTalk Radio
Cosmic Queries โ€“ Quantum Consciousness with Charles Liu

There's nothing connecting them at that moment other than the fact that they were entangled at one point in the past.

StarTalk Radio
Cosmic Queries โ€“ Quantum Consciousness with Charles Liu

And so there is no real way that we can show that that extra dimension is necessary or even effective.

StarTalk Radio
Cosmic Queries โ€“ Quantum Consciousness with Charles Liu

The time, the 223 attoseconds in which quantum entanglement occurs that you quoted is a very cool experimental result.

StarTalk Radio
Cosmic Queries โ€“ Quantum Consciousness with Charles Liu

It needs to be further confirmed and things like that.

StarTalk Radio
Cosmic Queries โ€“ Quantum Consciousness with Charles Liu

But the idea is that it doesn't give us

StarTalk Radio
Cosmic Queries โ€“ Quantum Consciousness with Charles Liu

a lot of insight as to whether or not another dimension is necessary.

StarTalk Radio
Cosmic Queries โ€“ Quantum Consciousness with Charles Liu

At the moment, we probably don't want to go in that direction yet.

StarTalk Radio
Cosmic Queries โ€“ Quantum Consciousness with Charles Liu

We don't have enough information to know whether or not that's a fruitful path, so to speak, for entanglement.

StarTalk Radio
Cosmic Queries โ€“ Quantum Consciousness with Charles Liu

Well, subspace is only vaguely determined, decided or defined in Star Trek, right?

StarTalk Radio
Cosmic Queries โ€“ Quantum Consciousness with Charles Liu

Yeah, exactly.

StarTalk Radio
Cosmic Queries โ€“ Quantum Consciousness with Charles Liu

But yes, if you're in a, it could be a warp drive or something like that, right?

StarTalk Radio
Cosmic Queries โ€“ Quantum Consciousness with Charles Liu

And you are in subspace as a result of being in a warp bubble, right?

StarTalk Radio
Cosmic Queries โ€“ Quantum Consciousness with Charles Liu

That could be considered a dimension, right?

StarTalk Radio
Cosmic Queries โ€“ Quantum Consciousness with Charles Liu

Or it could be considered something that is in the existing spatial dimensions that just happens to be temporarily not accessible.

StarTalk Radio
Cosmic Queries โ€“ Quantum Consciousness with Charles Liu

And yet you have subspace communications in Star Trek, so it is accessible, and it's just all kinds of weirdness.

StarTalk Radio
Cosmic Queries โ€“ Quantum Consciousness with Charles Liu

Correct.

StarTalk Radio
Cosmic Queries โ€“ Quantum Consciousness with Charles Liu

Well, that's one of the interesting things between Star Trek and Star Wars, right?

StarTalk Radio
Cosmic Queries โ€“ Quantum Consciousness with Charles Liu

I love them both, but even though Star Trek has tried to be much more scientific...

StarTalk Radio
Cosmic Queries โ€“ Quantum Consciousness with Charles Liu

Star Wars just gave up on being scientific.

StarTalk Radio
Cosmic Queries โ€“ Quantum Consciousness with Charles Liu

Star Wars is just a space opera.
