Physicists measured the rotation of the Earth using quantum entanglement

Red squiggles representing photons are sent into a loop representing the optical fiber in an interferometer, which surrounds Earth on a starry backdrop

The rotation of the Earth has been measured many times – but never like this. At first, scientists used entangled quantum particles called photons to detect the speed at which the globe spins. The achievement is a step toward investigating…
