Perhaps, but such research is worthwhile if it could translate to the proliferation of our species across the galaxy.

” Space is big. Really big. You just won’t believe how vastly hugely mindbogglingly big it is. I mean you may think it’s a long way down the road to the chemist’s, but that’s just peanuts to space. “ - H2G2

No space travel because we don’t have enough fuel.

I can think of one thing that is traveling at twice the speed of light.

I thought NASA’s job these days was to emphasize the contributions of Islam to science.

Didn’t the French do this exact same thing seven or eight years ago to show that paired photons remain quantum-bound even if they travel different distances? They produce the same interference pattern as paired photons which arrive at the same time.

Why would we be spending all this money to show the French were right?

So, If we already know the speed of light…What then is the speed of darkness?

NASA’s budget had been cut to the bone, then Sequestration cut it even further. We do not pursue greatness through research or space exploration any longer. Americans worship at the altar of Medicaid, Food Stamps, Social Security Disability, Medicare, ObamaCare, EITC cash refunds, Section 8 housing vouchers, TANF Welfare, and Unemployment checks.

Space is a convenient word used for the absence of things. Space is not something. Space can not be expanded.

I had heard that NASA’s prime mission had become to prove global warming through Muslim outreach.

“Shrodinger’s Kittens” is a good layman’s book about the history and issues of weird wacky world of quantum physics. The micro realms don’t play by the same rules that we do.

If we had fusion power, we would soon have a drag strip for test vehicles that would be several light years long and a half light year across. Then maybe we could do the measurement that these scientists are attempting. You need a big space lab to do these things.

But who is holding their breath, with the rastas crowd controlling the White Hut of the United States of Zimbabwe?
They be too busy pimping their superior equality to bother.
