Quantum entanglement is one of science’s most mysterious and fascinating discoveries proof that the universe may be deeply interconnected. When two particles are created together, they share a single quantum state, mirroring each other instantly no matter the distance, even across light-years. Albert Einstein called it “spooky action at a distance,” yet countless experiments have confirmed it’s real. This phenomenon seems to ignore the speed of light, hinting that space itself might not be what
