Scientists and researchers from Caltech, NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL), Harvard University, etc. have successfully transferred "qubits" of fibers over 22 kilometers (km or 13 miles) via Quantum Teleportation. The joint project of different top universities of the country has achieved what was thought to be fiction or seen in sci-fi movies.
A breakthrough for this team of top universities and the country's NASA JPL has achieved a real life Quantum Teleportation process which presents a major achievement in quantum computing and physical sciences. The futuristic tech is already in the hands of these modern-day scientists who have achieved what was considered impossible or years ahead.
According to Comicbook. com, this feat is not what is initial thought about quantum teleportation where physical matter objects such as items or the human person are transported to another location in real-time. Quantum Teleportation is a way to transfer data and lead to the future of insanely fast computing speeds, never before seen by this world and generation.
Sci-fi has popularized quantum teleportation and has associated it with bringing one person or thing to another location. However, in the researcher's case, this is nowhere near that current technology is indeed years away from that kind of process.
The breakthrough was led by Caltech and received help from a team that was composed of researchers from Harvard University, AT&T, University of Calgary, NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL), and Fermilab Quantum Networks. The experiment was four years in the making, taking a big leap from the previous six-kilometer record of quantum teleportation by the University of Calgary last 2016.

Caltech to Fermilab: Quantum Teleportation Transferred 'Qubits' of Data Over 22 km
This breakthrough is one of the largest of 2020, next to the COVID-19 Vaccine by Pfizer and BioNTech, and other innovations that graced the public this year. These innovations would soon be experienced and enjoyed by the public as technology evolves and becomes available for everyone.
According to IBM, Quantum computing is one of the next-generation processes that can compute at massive speeds, and gather information, data, and simulations which almost predicts a result via an algorithm. The new computer process can significantly improve the different industries that greatly rely on computing, which is basically everything.
Caltech has demonstrated this by transporting "qubits" of fiber through its quantum teleportation computer, successfully transferring a bulk of data almost instantly, at a distance of 22 kilometers. The receiving end is Fermilab Quantum Networks, which are an important element in making the process possible for the researchers.
Earlier this year, researchers from Europe, particularly London's top universities, with Lancaster, Yale, Royal Holloway, and Helsinki's Aalto University has made two-time crystals to interact with each other. This breakthrough is one bridge to humanity in tapping the power of quantum computing.
Now, another entity from America's top universities and agencies has discovered a way to use quantum teleportation, with its soon end product, quantum computers, and its high-speed processes.
