In quantum physics, Entanglement occurs when two or more particles share a quantum state in such a way that their properties cannot be completely described independently of one another. When measurements are performed on entangled particles, their results can display correlations that remain connected even when the particles are separated by enormous distances. Albert Einstein famously objected to this idea in 1935 and used entanglement to question whether quantum mechanics provided a complete description of reality. Entanglement does not allow usable information to be transmitted faster than light, so it does not provide a means of instantaneous communication across space. Instead, it reveals that quantum systems can possess relationships that cannot be understood by treating their individual parts as completely separate objects.
