Anton and his team are working on <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_cryptography" rel="nofollow">quantum cryptography</a>. Quantum entangled communication lasers that should be immune to eavesdropping, as it is theoretically impossible to intercept the beam without breaking the entanglement.

This guy was a plenary speaker at a the AIP (aus. institute of physics) congress in Brisbane, Australia about a week ago. He mentioned that if they can get the effect working over a slightly longer distance (maybe 200km) they'll be able to comunicate with satelites. It’s definitely for real pld.

Sounds like a hoax; but if it's true then it means that instantaneous communication is possible - think interplanetary web and such. Is this for real?
