Reply to comment by dcRoWdYh in What if a quantum computer could navigate a hypersonic missile?? by dcRoWdYh

Not really, as stated by the other commenter it would be like sticking a 50K single use battery in a missile you intend to destroy.

What would really make sense is to find a different way of overcoming the plasma interference.

Like with StarLink or something similar.

You can't. That's the purpose of suggesting quantum entanglement. Its all these other people that are making this a sour thing though, I just wanted to poke around, but apparently free thinking is discouraged on Reddit

It’s not that it’s discouraged, it’s that there are clear and absolute barriers to what you are talking about…Ones that are much more insurmountable that the option I just provided.

Yet you still think it’s everyone else’s fault for having more info on the topic than you, instead of just realizing that your thought was neither correct nor complete.

Either take the opinions you are given, when you post on an opinion board; or just stop caring…

While it may technically be “possible” at some point in our future, we have given you clear reasons why it would not be used for this type of scenario.

People use to think quantum entanglement was a joke or not something useful, even Einstein was confused by it…now we are using it more and more.

If something like that can be overcome, then it would stand to reason there is a different way that we are yet unaware to overcome the plasma problem…

Edit: You are using absolutely terms like “it can’t”, but no one else talking to you is doing so. They are telling you why it would be impractical for use on something that is intended to blow up.
