Quantum entanglement and parallel worlds

Chapter 5. Tangled Couples
Now let's get to the fact that the reality of what we are going to speculate about is taken on faith. We do, after all, believe in the atom, god, dark matter, the human soul, and many such things. Or at least partially in any of these and similar things.
So believe that there is everything in infinity. And do not forget my main postulate: if you said "not everything", it means that you have presented a minuscule part of this eternity. Therefore I declare that these parallel worlds really exist, moreover – they are an exact copy of ours. I will cite quantum teleportation as proof. Since not all my dear readers understand subtleties of this process, I will make detailed explanations.
Let me explain how it can be. In physics, quantum teleportation is a very real thing. What is it? It is a transfer of quantum state of an electron, i.e. a tiny particle, of which, however, our world and we ourselves consist. So, it is a transfer of particle states over a distance by means of a coupled (or entangled) pair separated in space.
Quantum entanglement is a phenomenon in which the states of two (or more) particles appear to be interdependent. For example, it is possible to receive a pair of particles which are in an entangled state, i.e. connected with each other as if by kinship ties, and then if at measurement of a regular circle, let's say, of the first particle the helicity turns out to be positive, then the helicity of the second particle will always be negative… and vice versa. Such interdependence is always preserved even if these objects are separated in space beyond any known interactions. So, logically, they should have no connection. But a change in the parameter of one particle leads to an instantaneous change in the state of another. It's a miracle. And this miracle is possible because the process occurs instantaneously… not just above the speed of light, but instantaneously. And here I can prove that this is not some kind of miracle, but quite a natural phenomenon. According to the laws of physics, as we know, nothing can be transferred from one place to another at a speed greater than the speed of light. Accordingly, we know nothing about anything that moves above the speed of light. Quantum teleportation does not transfer energy or matter over distance. The fantastic notion of teleportation comes from a specific interpretation of the experiment: the original state of the particle collapses after all that has happened, as if it were to appear elsewhere. That is, the state was not copied, but transferred from one place to another. Well, now you will say that this is nonsense, because in fact both energy and information are transferred. Information, I think, for sure. Because the state of one particle is transferred to another particle. All right. Let's do this – you will believe me without these scientific details, because the fact of influence is there, but there is no scientific substantiation yet.
Let's return to our thought experiment. In order to realize such an experiment, first of all, we need to invent a technology with which we can copy your brain, that is, what you really are, transmit its state over a distance with instantaneous (or almost instantaneous) speed, and then – the most interesting thing – put this state into another brain. Now for the even more curious part. You have probably all seen how under the influence of hypnosis a person becomes, to put it mildly, a different personality. It is as if the body remained, but the consciousness, the personality became different. Similarly, in this case, when realizing such an influence, the consciousness, getting into a new body, puts that brain as if in a coma state, that is, it disconnects it, and then acts on its own. Besides, a timer program will be laid down, and it, this first mind, will switch off at the appointed time and return to the original body. And the person from which the mind and consciousness were sent will then know and remember everything that he felt in another's body. Here is a miracle, which is partially already real.
Imagine if someone had told you at the dawn of the invention of electricity that one day the whole world would be covered with wires. You would have said, "There are not enough resources for that, it is impossible to realize. Wouldn't you? And now think… if I tell you that such installation, which probably will not differ much from virtual reality installation, will become a common commodity, and such flights to parallel worlds will be entertainment and attraction. Well? You'll say: here it carries. Discoverers have always fled from primitive consciousness to the depths of space. Let's get rid of primitive consciousness.
Some will say, "Wait, wait, wait, let's deal with it on Earth. Let's assume that all this is true. The technology of consciousness transfer already exists. Quantum teleportation is known to science. But tell me, please, what makes you think that there are these parallel worlds?
I'll answer: it all comes from what I said. I was talking about quantum entanglement. That is to clarify: entanglement is not from the word "entanglement", but from the fact that one particle has a double, which allows parallel reality, somewhere its state changes with instantaneous speed. Repeats the particle like you in a mirror – your reflection.
Quantum teleportation provides the answer to the existence of these worlds. It's hard to believe, but it does. It's been going on for billions of years. We're all made up of these particles. We know what photography, X-rays, CAT scans are, and it doesn't surprise us anymore. What's that… cloning and genetically modified foods don't even surprise us. So why not assume that our whole world, consisting of molecules, atoms, particles and so on, emitting all this every second, has not folded into the same world in another area, where the appropriate conditions exist. Why shouldn't that be allowed to happen? So, logically speaking – all of this is there, is there in numerous forms, that is, one world is reflected in another, and that one in a third, and so on. Of course, with each copy, and taking into account the conditions around, the subsequent world will already be a little different.
As for the practical part, I think there are not enough fingers on my hands to list in what areas and for what purpose this process can be used. For example, even in Earth conditions it is possible to create several clones of one person, settle them in special agencies, in different parts of the world, and the sought person can instantly transfer consciousness across oceans and continents, remaining herself. It's the same in those worlds. Initially, once there, the same technological setups and the same clones can be created. That is, traveling to far and distant space will not be a problem at all.
Chapter 6. The theory of non-relativity
Let's do a thought experiment, a virtual one. Or at least just speculate how it could be in reality. After all, agree – obviously in those times, when people began to realize that the world is huge and there are other lands, speculations about a possible in the future direct reportage, in live broadcasting, in any future, not only would be perceived as fantasy, but it would be difficult to explain what and how. So, let us at least explain what and how. Personally, this method assured me of the non-alternativity of this method of mankind's existence in the future. But only not by moving into each other, but by moving the consciousness according to the principle of the influence of entangled pairs to the far reaches of space. There the consciousness will have to find its shelter, i.e. another biological body. If not, it will return to the original one without risk. What is consciousness? It's an aura of brain waves generated by the brain. With their help we can influence the particles, and those in their turn, influencing each other, exchanging states (and the distance, as it was voiced, does not play a role for them), will have to do the same as any other change. When we speak, draw, write, tap out Morse code, even when we make babies – we are converting one action into another, and initially converting an idea, a thought into a desire and action. In the same way these particles, influencing each other, should form a copy of the original consciousness from other waves there, somewhere far away, in someone's brain. People use such technologies everywhere, only we are not copying consciousness yet.
By transmitting consciousness through the influence of one particle on its copy, you can achieve the main goal – to overcome great distances. After all, even if you fly at the speed of light, i.e. 300,000 kilometers per second, you will pass our galaxy only in a circle for 327,000 years. That's if you go in one outer circle, and there are about 400,000,000,000,000,000 stars in it, except for the planets. It will take you 2,551,000 years to get to the nearest galaxy at this incredible speed. And to the known edge of the universe – about 46,000,000,000,000,000 years, not to mention other universes, the existence of which is in doubt. So, the second advantage of this technology is that, in addition to the instantaneous transfer of the state of one particle to another, these particles find each other. That is, they do not fly anywhere, or rather, they transfer their state knowing in advance the entangled pair. This can be compared to the way a glass lens and electrical signals preserve your appearance, voice and instantly transmit to the other side of the earth. This too would once have been magic, tell someone such a thing, even Archimedes himself.
Here I need to give a small clarification about the size of the universe. The size of the observable universe due to its expansion depends on which definition of distance one adopts. The associated distance to the most distant observable object, the surface of the last relic scattering, is about 14 billion parsecs, or 14 gigaparsecs (46 billion light years) in all directions. Thus, the observed universe is a ball about 93 billion light-years in diameter and centered in the solar system (the observer's location).
