For the first time in history, quantum teleportation has been successfully achieved.
Details were provided by engineers from the USA.
Experts have managed to carry out quantum teleportation over a distance of 30 km, TASS reports.
In this case, a conventional optical communication line was used to carry out teleportation.
This is a major breakthrough for science. This development could potentially allow existing Internet lines to be used for quantum teleportation.
In addition, the project itself has proven in practice that quantum teleportation is possible.
Previously, this technology was only theoretical.
The project's authors call the development "a giant leap in the development of quantum communications."
Quantum teleportation is a physical phenomenon.
It allows particles of the microworld to exchange data at lightning speed over any distance.
Nowadays, data transmission via optical fiber or quantum communication satellites is common.
But in any case, inactive or specially created communication lines are used for this.
The advantage of such data transfer is not only speed, but also security.
It is believed that it is impossible to intercept information transmitted in this way.
The development could become a new milestone in the history of communication technology development.
