NEW RESULTS! Cosmic Quantum Bell Test

I do agree that quantum entanglement is a real phenomenon but the problem we have lies in the underlying physical description. We should not be thinking of the photons as two separate particles.

Instead, think of the entangled photons as a single system which is a dispersed wave in space (even when emitted from a distant star) then it is the act of the interaction of this dispersed wave with a detector which changes the state of the system and forces a particular outcome on another detector measuring the entangled pair.

This is explained in more detail here:

It does mean that there are instantaneous effects which take place when a wave system interacts with a detector. This does not mean that you can transmit information at faster than the speed of light because it only happens at the point of detection.

It does require us to understand the medium for the transmission of the change of state of the system and it is space time itself. Importantly, since we are talking about an instantaneous effect we have to state the frame of reference in which the instantaneous effect takes place since General Relativity (GR) tells us that instantaneous effects in one frame of reference are not instantaneous effects in another frame of reference.

This means that there must be a unique frame of reference in the universe for entanglement effects which seems to contradict the initial assumptions of GR but is not precluded by GR. It is proposed that this frame of reference is the same as the CMBR reference frame which is a cosmological unique frame of reference.
