Know how they are always saying that subspace transmits their communications instantly anywhere in the pegasus galaxy? Is it supposed to be by quantum entanglement?

Originally posted by NATIKNo it is supposed to be transmissions through subspace, since subsapce have different laws of phsyics communication travel faster there. Therefore they use subspace comms instead of normal comms.
but quantum entanglement transmits information instantaneously thru space from one point to another so isn't that what they're referring to when they mention subspace?

Quantum entanglement
No communication theorem

Imagine I take two tokens, one red and one blue, and I put each one in a box. I then shuffle the boxes and give one box to you and keep the other fro myself. We then travel far away from each other. Now, imagine I open my box, and I see a red token. Now, I know that your box contains a blue token, and so the superposition of your box collapses because of something I did far away. By the very act of me measuring my token I can change what you will measure in your box - if I measure red you will measure blue and vice versa. That is what quantum entanglement is about.

I'm sure in 50 years or so we'll either discover a form of sub-space or find a way to use this property to transmit messages.
FTL messaging is essential if we want to go further than, say, Mars.Son, do you know what colour this phone is?
