But when we look at the tiniest pieces of matter &#8211; atoms and smaller particles &#8211; these rules no longer work. In this quantum world, particles can be in many places at once and can affect each other instantly even when far apart. Scientists are learning to use these special properties to build new types of technology. It&#8217;s not just about making our current technology better &#8211; quantum allows us to do things that were previously thought impossible.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div
