How did the guys who just won the Nobel Prize in Physics devise an experiment that tested Einstein's famous EPR thought experiment involving quantum entanglement? And prove him wrong. A lab room for the experiment would not allow the minuscule differences in velocity between light speed and instantaneous speed to be observed since the distance between particles is so small. 1 billion miles would be a piece of cake since differences in velocity would be obvious, that's why Einstein chose such a distance in the EPR paper.Einstein claimed that once entangled particles were separated by a great distance such as 1 billion miles, information about the change in state of one particle could not travel faster than the speed of light, so not instantaneous. He reasoned they would not be entangled any more.
