BREAKING: New Phase of Matter

When she mentioned Feynman imagining one day that quantum computers would simulate real-world physics, I immediately thought of virtual reality and the potential of having a quantum engine running a virtual reality environment that simulated the real world exactly. In such an environment you could build weird new nuclear reactors, develop rockets or vehicles or architecturally design bizarre buildings without labor or material costs that would act exactly as they would in the real world but without any of the dangers involved in building and testing such prototypes. And when all the issues and difficulties are ironed out, just build them in the real world knowing there won't be any unforeseen problems, just like pulling a rabbit out of a hat.
