Quantum Computing is astonishingly fast compared with todays standards and would revolutionize science across the board.

From space mapping to developing medicines to even making more accurate GPS signals, Quantum Computing will change the world.

Hurdles and Help

The current hurdles to developing a Quantum Internet exist because Quantum Computing is so weird and fragile.

But currently, scientists are finding ways to send quantum data over a distance of several miles.

Their goal is to send data over a distance of 100 miles, at which point they will need to invent another device to be able to repeat the signal.

Its a step in the right direction.

And better yet its set to get more funding this year from the Trump administration.

The proposed budget for 2021, while slashing scientific research by 10%, actually increased funding for quantum sciences by 20%.

Theres a lot of work to be done to lay out the network for a Quantum Internet. The hardware just doesnt exist right now.

So this extra funding could prove extremely useful to get us ahead of the game.

From a security position it only makes sense too.

A Quantum Internet is extremely safe from being hacked. And government agencies and diplomats would want to use it to protect confidential and secret information.

Already, the Chinese government is set to pour billions into quantum development.

And thats a scary thought.

But the bright news is our current scientists are well ahead of the game. And are on their way to making Quantum Computing a reality.

To a bright future,
