Scientists working from Einstein's theories have been investigating the bizarre phenomenon of entanglement, the idea that two subatomic particles in different locations can be linked so that a change in one particle would instantly be reflected in the other, even if separated by a universe. Einstein could not believe that such bizarre effects could be true even though based on his own theories. He famously declared that quantum mechanics could not be correct because God does not play dice. But recent research shows that such effects do happen and could, as or understanding of them grows, transform our lives and our understanding of the universe or universes around us. Very Good/Very Good.
