Are you familiar with the ansible from Orson Scott Card's novels? It's a device that can communicate across the universe using particles queued to each other.

Point of SF faandom: the Ansible was a term coined by Ursula K. LeGuin for her Hainish novels (The Dispossessed, The Left Hand of Darkness, etc.). Many science fiction writers have adopted the term and used it in their novels.
